Message	For those not familar with the work of Nelson Racing please have a look online. They make some monster motors. Apparently Ormes and Bent do all of Nelson's hardlines for the hogh end builds. They use aluminum nuts, sleeves and fittings with stainless lines. Annealed SEAMLESS lines are necessary for making good flares. They don't use aluminum for the reason highlighted by TheKryptKeeper. Soft flexible line isn't great for keeping shape and vibration can cause problems. I purchased a roll of aluminum line to do my PCV reroute. Jegs / Summit carry several brands. Usually comes in a 25 ft roll for $25 - $35. Stainless is available through Ormes but I can get longer lengths of 316 SS from a local Swagelok supplier cheaper. Seamless laboratory grade should do the trick at about 1/2 price.
