I'm in the process if figuring out my fuel system and wanted to see where all of you are purchasing your parts from. I priced out summit racing and I'm around $400 for everything I need. Not sure if that's good or bad. I was looking at getting pfte stainless braided hose 8an feed with all the necessary connectors which is strait x4,45 x2 and 90 x4 degree swivel fittings. Then my return is 6an with the same amount of connectors. I plan to run 8an aluminum under the car and use the stock 3/8 line for the return. Each one of those connectors is around $15, any other options out there?

I buy my fittings from Summit, it adds up fast though. When I'm putting a fuel system together I can easily spend $300-500 on misc fittings.

Ya, it definitely adds up fast. I was triple checking my cart to figure out why the hell it was so much! lol of course half the stuff I want is out of stock for a month too.

Got all mine from Summit. AN stuff ain't cheap, so make sure you only buy what you need. Try and minimize angled hose ends and use angled fittings instead since hose ends are twice as much as fittings. Try and use as many straight connections as you can. You'll save some $$$ there.
