I have ptfe on the high side . Matching standard braided hose on the other side with a hose clamp at the pumpHere's what may be a dumb question......what are you doing for the low-pressure side? Regular rubber hose, or some fancy way of putting braided hose on a barb that I don't know about?
so i guess my question is, is hose clamping braided not considered a hack job in this situation? some limited experience on my part on this, just havent really seen it done
That stuff works great! And Walmart has it online for $15.36Looks like I need to modify. I need to grab these two mounting tabs to bolt it up. I’ll likely 3d print a prototype first to make sure I have the right location. Setting up the laser cutter program and getting machine time is a PITA
Also, installed the throttle cable. All my “thru-the-firewall” work is done. Dash can go back on now. I want to throw it on first to make sure all plugs where they need to be.
final pedal setup. I plan on remaking the brake pedal later on. The pad comes off, so I’ll design and weld something up that can accept the SN95 matching pad.
Evaporust bath for the spindkes and some other parts. I’m impressed at how well this stuff works. I want them spotless before I throw some paint on.

I evaporusted a set of fox spindles (granted, was like try #4 on that bottle and was really really weak, so need to do it again) but it blackened them. Think bluing steel color. I actually like the look, but know it may change the colorInstalled the MM fittings, then realized I forgot the hydraulic sealant so out they came again. Removing them buggered up the Teflon o ring, so I need to get new ones. I was not amused.
I’ll likely have to pull the rack off because proper torque is critical. Any more and it ruins the o ring. Prob is I can’t torque it like this. Rack needs to come off. Fortunately at this stage, that’s easy
Decided to do something easy so I worked on cleaning up the spindles. Got them to this point abs decided an evaporust dip might be worthwhile.
I should powdercoat these, but I feel like it’s a lot of time abs effort for something I’ll never see. I painted my 94-95 spindkes and it held up well.

That’s what I did. Heat shrinkEd the end of the braided line just the width of the clamp . Used it on my return from my ps pump and no issues . The pressure side I ran a fragola ptfe braided line with the crimped on endsBraided hose will accept a clamp just fine.. they even make ends that use a clamp and look like a fitting... not my thing.. I use either spring clamps or fuel line style clamps VS the worm gear.
Slip a piece of heat shrink over it and partially shrink it so it can be folded back. to get at the clamp, looks clean as long as someone does not eyeball it too much
