Default SS fuel lines?

I was browsing a website and saw something about SS fuel lines? I forget what site but any thoughts on this? Also maybe what Site I saw them on?

Buy them from Pauerman (he is on the board). This is really the nicest setup I have seen.

Does anyone make a replacement for the 6" line between the fuel rail and the fuel pressure damper? That was the one subject to the recall, I think.

My other lines are new, and I would like to change that one as well. I haven't seen anyone offer a replacement for that one.

Pauerman makes the little hose too. It's a pricy one though. Still cheaper than an engine fire...

I got Pauerman's SS lines. His are proper compression fitting lines.

I've looked at each of the aftermarket kits. All are good, but I think Pauerman's is best based on moving two of the joints to outside the engine compartment. The others just cut off the existing lines, leaving 4 connections near the fuel lines. No offense to Travis and Tim, but I like Pauerman's better for that reason.

Anyone have a picture of the little hose that Pauerman sells?

And what's the estimate of the cost of that one hose?

I think the small hose is 150 dollars but it is braided and nice. You could also go without the damper like I am doing.

Makes me want to call Sunset, ask how much the OEM one is.

About 150 dollars. Actually, IIRC the stock one is 165.00. Take my word for it, Pauermans lines are nice enough that another RLer took off the BRAND NEW Lindsey hoses and ordered from Vic after seeing mine. They are that much better.
