Wanted to know where board members order their plumbing stuff from.

Have been using summit racing and pegasus racing supply and been happy so far with both. Just wondering is there was anybody cheaper and still know the meaning of customer service since fittings and hose add up very quickly.

Thanks in advance.

Never heard of pegasus racing but I usually use Aeroquip for the line and Earls/Russel for the fittings. I know Profesional Products is fairly cheap but great quality.

Never heard of Pegasus? You don't do much race prep then.. Pegasus is a distributor, not a manufacturer.

I wish I could remember the places we usually get stuff from for our race cars, I haven't got anything since last spring or so and it's fallen out of my memory. Pegasus and Summit are usually pretty good though, like you said. You can find cheaper stuff at some other places, but the selection is rarely anywhere close so it doesn't make it that worthwhile to go price shopping unless you need really simple stuff.

For brands I like Aeroquip, Goodridge, Earls, XRP, Fluid Control Products, Krontec, and ProGold..

Oh, and Jiffy Tite for reasonable priced (that's relative, believe me) dry break and quick connect fittings for fuel. They're only rated at 200PSI though, so no brake/clutch lines.

Sometimes we get Staubli stuff (and you cry when you pay for it), they make the most beatiful disconnect fittings. About $300 (and UP!) per fitting pair ($150 male, $150 female) but where else are you going to find 220bar rated quick connects for hydraulic lines? You can get 350bar rated Ti fittings too, those are slightly more expensive though. Not sure why you'd need a 5kPSI fitting, but whatever.

Cool, they carry Starlite hose.. Good stuff.
