Default Cheapest source for AN fittings/lines?

Considering doing the swap to AN fittings and lines for my external oil cooler which is part of the reason I might be using a different cooler than the stock 951.

I'm wondering what the cheapest source would be for the following:

All parts are size AN-12.

- 6 ft stainless braided hose
- 1-3** 90* hose ends
- 1 45* hose end
- **2 straight hose ends maybe depending on cooler
- 2 22x1.5 to -12 fittings

I've looked on Summit and Pegasus and also dabbled on Earl's. Anywhere else to look? Looks like I might be seeing around $150 for these fittings and hoses, seeing if there's anything better out there.

Summit is pretty much the cheapest, but not the best quality. There's a few topics on this with good info/sources that I've found in the past.

+1 on the $150 estimate. Looked at going that route instead of replacing the stock oil lines, came out to almost even money either way.

is stainless braided hose pretty much the same regardless of brand? looking at a ebay listing of new stuff made in USA for a good price and the seller has a very good reputation.
