are they worth it?

i have everything to change over from the ugly blue upper hose i have on the car. my reason was to get the rubber hose away from the turbo heat. it gets hot under there.

any-one-run-em?
 
I think so....I'm using -20 on the upper only, as the lower shouldn't come into play with the DownPipe.

The only problem is the cost, -16 and -20 fittings are insanely expensive.
 
garbage. i have some here, cracked. for the price diff i will only buy Aeroquip/goodridge/earls.

i have everything already. pre-fabbed goodridge with heat sleeve. nascar stuff

I would assume it's worth it to not melt your hoses. i had a simlar delema but i just used 1.75" and 1.5" stainless tubing to make my radiator lines and then just used silicone couplers to attach them at the radiator/motor

Really? I'm surprised to hear that. I have some and they went together real well
with no leaks. Hmmm.
 
I have reused aeroquip over and over, never had a problem ever.

Used home brand fittings and had 3 crack, still have a bunch on the car, but they are coming off. Maybe I just got a couple bad ones. But that was enough for me
