I first want to put a braided radiator hose on my 68 427/390 . Then while searching other Vette parts sites ive noticed some selling braided sleeve kits. Dont really like the idea of the braided sleeves. I really want to do all the hoses i can do braided. Does anyone know which hoses i can do braided? I did see the braided radiator hose from Eckers and saw the braided fuel line from Mid America Motorworks. And Jeggs only has the Vacume line dress up kit only in colored hoses. What are ALL the hoses that can be bought braided. Thanks and appreciate all your great guys help.

Any hose can be braided. If you are just after the looks the kits are fine. If you are after real braided hoses, check out earl's performance or Russell fittings to start. They have a hose and proper fittings for every application. The reason people buy the kits is real braided hoses are spendy and really overkill in most applications.

Are you going for a retro '90s look? I think that would be pretty cool.
