I am changing engines in our gen 2 and am thinking about replacing my old blue fuel hoses, that I have seen on most older SRF's. Use this car only a couple weekends a year and would like to replace it with similar hoses. Any suggestions as to a brand of hose that you have used and the type of reinforcement or fabric which works with ethanol fuel? I noticed for example that summit sells Russel products and there are several other brands out there. Thanks in advance for your help.

I prefer Earl's, they are a little more expensive, but (at least used to) have some features the cheaper ones don't.

Dave, is there something I should be looking for that is better suited for ethanol fuel? I will look at their web site to see what they recommend, but if you have some experience with this product give me your opinion.
Thanks Pat

Aeroquip AQP Socketless Hose FCV0620

This is the blue hose I used on both my Gen2 and Gen3 from Summit Racing for fuel, oil and water (the 06 size)
Hope that helps.

Aeroquip is the gold standard.
