OK, so I am finally going to run a front mounted oil cooler. From what I have read -12 AN is the way to go for the lines. However, there are 2 choices.
Aeroquip steel braided hose at $6.55 a foot Aeroquip socketless hose at $4.96 a foot Seems like I will need about 28 feet (sounds like a lot) from what I have read. So cost difference is $44.52. The connectors are more expensive too $88.18 for the socketless versus $126.52 for the reuseable. There is another $38.34. Total $82.86 difference. It seems that given the routing that there is not much abrasion (http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act=ST&f=2&t=4657). Is the steel braided really needed?
