Supporting vendor? Awesome!
Otherwise, totally gay. :JEKYLHYDE
EDIT: Okay, not exactly gay (don't want to offend). It's the ricer look (Oops! Just offended more!).

Wire brushes in the Dremel tool and 600 grit sand paper. It probably took about as long as it would take to change the fittings themselves but the results are pretty nice looking. The anodization comes off reasonably easy and leaves beautiful bright raw aluminum. That is starting to oxidize over now and leaving a very cool "old style" look. |

Easy -Off oven cleaner takes anodizing right off.

They have a "Natural" color (I'm assuming this is not finished) so you do not have to remove the anodizing.
The thing I liked about them is the quick disconnect feature, and you do not have to have hose clamps.
Personally I do not think it looks "ricer", nor the last time I checked was I gay.:eek: Just wanted that for the record. ;):D

John, I've used the product. I used for my vacuum gauge to carb and PCV to carb.... a few picts attached. I liked the product mostly because I would keep the same "theme" going to match my MSD spark wires and ss braided hose fittings.

Was just messing with you. Different strokes for different folks. Aeroquip makes some really nice disconnects for fuel and just about any connection. I just thought this offering showed some colors that were, well, loud. ;)

I looked through some of your stuff. It looks like you did some really cool things to your Cobra to make it have some punch. Nice work man. |
