    Where do i get the old woven hose?

     



    I remember hose from aeroquip i thought was called 'weave loc' or something, we used a pushlock type -AN fitting and lots of prostocks used it back in the day, Hogan used it on our car.
    I am trying to find it for period cars and aeroquip don't know what i'm talking about and sent me to summit.
    Do any of you guys know where i can get some?
    It was not stainless braid hose, it had an outer fabric weave on it covering the hose similiar to the light weight stuff and it was NHRA approved just like stainless.
    Thanks oj

    I know what you are talking about but have not seen that type hose in years....
    The push lock hose now days is Pepsi blue in color. Jegs "house" brand push lock hose and fittings are the best deal I have found.

    I still can't find it. I am trying to locate the brass crimped fittings that work with that hose and have the doubleflare fittings so's i can make up those old fuel lines. I can't find those fittings either.
    I am doing a nice set of zenith 1bbl's on a nice old Tattersfield intake for a 250 6cyl and i want the woven hose and crimped fittings so bad it is killing me.
    I'll post a pic or two of it when they are a little further along.

    I am getting close i think. I believe 'Weatherhead' has it, they have industrial grade hose, fittings etc. I have yet to look deep into thier product but it is promising.

    Yes i did. That is the current list of approved hose, i am trying to recreate hoses from 30odd years ago.
    I may have been mistaken that aeroquip was the original supplier, memory is funny like that. The nearest i have found is from weatherhead and i am just looking at a picture and it may or may not be the same.
