Push lock is good. You can use stainless an hose with it as well as most other hoses. eliminates the need for hose clamps and looks nice. I would run an and stainless hose for the water lines tho because of the high pressure. I did -12 for my oil lines,oil cooler and filter bypass,-10 for all the water lines,dumps, water pressure bypass ect. I used -12 from the pump to the sea strainer water line. -8 for the fuel lines. -6 for the fuel return lines and -20 for the fuel tank balance hose. -6 for the main nitrous hose.-6 for the fuel vent lines.lets just say my boat runs on the cold side and everything flows the way it should or better. I take pride in the way I rigged my boat but the cost :screwy:
