How long would that take?

If the fittings have to be replated probably 1-2 weeks. Without plating should be much less. I think all the later fitting are painted black stock.

I dropped my old lines off with Greg (at his 'sister' shop, J2 Precision) a few weeks back. He rebuilt these (after re-plating the ends) and I picked up my pair of these today, to be attached to the stroker, so I splurged the extra 50 beans for Kevlar (never know when I might just enter the car in a 24 hour Enduro... :

The receipt says the hose itself is $57 per foot.... Considering they're significantly less than what a set of replacement factory hoses cost, I think they're pretty reasonable.

We now have cores replated with new hoses on them for the '90 and later cars...just like Robs. We didn't paint them black, like the factory did, but plated them, instead. Mark has a set in stock and I have a couple of extra sets. These hoses are rare and we will absolutely need to get the old cores back...so the "core charge" will be big enough that you will want to send the old ones back for credit!

If you have ever bought bulk hose, just simple cloth braided hose from Wurth, in anything close to that size, you will understand just what a deal the hoses from Greg are.

I charge close to that just for PS hose on some BMW's and they have no ends on them.

I had mine rebuilt locally here in Oz last year, and 3 of the 4 lines (engine and tranny) had to be rebuilt, because they were TOO LONG - enough too long that they were flattening in trying to bend enough to mate straight to the cooler fittings. It was less than 1"/25mm, but it was enough to be a problem, IMHO.

Those lines (Kevlar) look like XRP which I have a set for my dry sump setup, very nice quality and super lightweight also. Good to see, I would agree these will last longer than the factory lines, if they are the same as mine they are not rubber but a type of plastic lining along with kevlar and stainless woven internally.

That's the very "top end" hose provided by Goodridge. Teflon lined. Kevlar coated. XRP tried to dublicate. It simply doesn't get any better than this hose. Uber light weight. Indestructible...unless you poke a hole in them, burn them, or actively do something to destroy them..they will never leak.
