Racer,

for the last two projects I used the Gates LOL hose. [same hose that Russell sells] [In the NHRA rule book there is a listing of approved hoses.]

And used the Russell push lock fittings with a product that Gates has called Powergrip Clamps These are a heat shrink material that grips the hose to the fitting. You do not use the Russell trim ring, the Gates products takes it's place. This is a quick, easy, good looking system. I know a number of racers doing this with no problems.

A local auto parts store who sells Gates products can get these items.

Send me your E-Mail address to me, durafin@gmail.com . I will send you a photo of a fitting installed.
