Default Braided lines (again)

Who around largo carries the best selection of an fittings?

I went to automotive engineering and they were very very unhelpful with finding me any of the fittings I need.
Goodyear told me they would have to order the fittings before making the hose. That was about a week ago and they were supposed to already have them done and they don't even have the fittings in yet.

The only thing stopping me from finishing my engine rebuild is the new lines to and from the turbo and no one seems to be of any help in the shorter term. I've been put off a few times and am sick of waiting I just need to go ahead with the race line and an fittings. If I knew what size they were i'd just use summit but I need someone to actually be able to asist me.

+1213231 for Amazon. Bought all the fittings and braided stainless teflon lined hose for the oil feed line on the SVO for about $15. Plus they are a great bunch of guys who really know what they are talking about.

Good call on amazon guys they knocked out one of the lines for me. Not as cheap as it should have been. The other is still a no go and i'm getting sick of this it can't be done crap.

I'll find out the fitting size and order it through a/e or summit.

With the new header moving the turbo forward a few inchs I needed to make new oil feed and return lines. I also needed coolant lines return and feed.

I just want to get this damn thing done and get back to driving it.
