I am in the process of re-configuring my primary filters and am confused about fuel line.

The current fuel line is USCG A1 with swaged JIC fittings.

Option 1)

Seaboard Marine will make comparable line with BLUEFIN A360 hose. The three lines I would need would cost about $220.00. This would be easy and match the lines that will not be replaced in the system.

Option 2)

Use Shields Series 368 Low Permeation Marine Fuel Hose 3/8" x 10 FT this is a USCG A1-15 hose costing $28.00

Hose: $28.00
3/8" Hose x 3/8" JIC 37° Female Swivel: $13.50 (6@$2.25)
Fancy injector style hose clamps: $27.00 (12@$2.25)
Total: $68.50


Option 3) Push-loc connectors with same hose about same price.

Other options or ideas?

Thanks,
David
