AN Fuel line & Vapor weeping

[Sti_Guy]

So I just hit a milestone in my build and was able to fire up the engine for the first time, as great as it was I quickly realized something was up with the car when the next day the garage smelled of fuel. I traced it back to the fuel line used in 90% of the fuel system Aeroquips Startlite line hose. It has a AQP inner liner and cloth Kevlar fire resistant outer. So now im looking for an alternative. I would use a PTFE lined SS braided hose but I don’t want SS outer braid, and typically the bend radius is way too big for the space constraints im working under. From the research I have done so far it looks like about another 2500-3000$ investment to have every line on the car made out of Goodridge 910 hose with crimp on ends, or an XRP equivalent with convoluted PTFE inner liner. Has anyone else been down this same road, or had similar experiences with the Startlite hose from Aeroquip? Not only do I have a big pile of junk on the car none of the hose options I believe I have will use any of my vast inventory of hose ends for the Startlite hose just every direction seems a waste of money.
