-6 BlackLITE- Braided Teflon® Hose (10' length)
$151.50
NEW TechAFX BlackLITE PTFE AN hose gives you the best of ALL worlds:
BlackLITE PTFE AN hose is built to last with today's fuels--it has passed all new-car SAE testing (testing our aftermarket competitors don't do) There is only one other hose on the market as light as BlackLITE, but it costs TWICE AS MUCH as our lightweight hose!
BlackLITE is a conductive-core, smoothbore PTFE AN hose, that has a black, braided exterior wrap for that OEM look. The exterior appearance is reminicient of the 50's hoses, so it will look right at home in your vintage hot rod!
TechAFX's BlackLITE construction makes it really easy to build hose your assemblies, because there are no SS metal braids to poke you!!! The hose can be quickly & easily cut with a sharp blade or standard hose cutters.
BlackLITE has been lab tested to offer you superior performance with our line of TechAFX AN Fittings (via a patent pending process).
BlackLITE also works with other commonly available lightweight, crimp-on hose ends.

G8/Commodore Looksrite Heater Hose Asm.
$109.00
NEW ITEM !!!
The G8/Commodore Looksrite Heater Hose assembly is ideal for those enthusiasts that want to discard the factory-provided plastic ‘garbage can lid’ engine cover and show off their LS V8. The primary goal of the G8/Commodore Looksrite Heater Hose assembly is to move the heater hoses off the top of the engine, so the beauty of the LS V8 can be seen.
All Looksrite Heater Hoses utilize CNC-bent and formed aluminum tubing, custom formed 90 degree rubber hose ends, factory-style constant tension clamps to provide production quality durability and high temperature-rated hose separators. When installed, the Heater Hose assembly is positioned between the body structure and engine on the passenger side of the engine bay.
TechAFX offers only the highest-quality OE standard automotive hoses for aftermarket applications. All TechAFX products utilize factory hardware, which is rigorously tested to exceed industry standards for performance.

SEMA '12: Hi-Performance is Still Hot!
Rachael Adams of Detroit joined the TechAFX crew for this year's SEMA Show.
SEMA 2012 was a GREAT event & we look forward to it all year long. Despite the rocky start (courtesy of Hurricane Sandy), the crowds were enthusiastic & kept streaming through the booth all week long.
After 3 years of spreading the gospel of the UNsafe Rubber AN Hose, it's good to see that most folks now understand the need to use PTFE hoses on their vehicles! Talking with these same Gearheads also let us know that TechAFX products are viewed as technologically advanced compared to the competition.

TechAFX & Aeromotive Join the Crew on Search & Restore TV
RTM Productions invites TechAFX to their Tech Center to help out on their latest project.
.
TechAFX recently worked with Aeromotive, Rick's Stainless Tanks and PACE Performance to install a fuel system on the Search & Restore update of Chad Terhar's 1955 Chevy 210 Handyman wagon--check out the final installment of the show by clicking the link below.
The Fuel System (see 1:12 into the video)
The fuel system on the '55 consists of a Rick's Stainless Tanks fuel tank, with a built in fuel sender (which combines the fuel pump, fuel level system and feed/return fuel lines into one unit), lots of TechAFX PTFE AN BlackWrap hose (-8 AN feed, -6 AN return) and TechAFX military-grade, US-made AN Fittings (anodized BLACK, of course!) with the proven combination of an Aeromotive fuel filter and vacuum controlled pressure regulator.
To top it off, we used a TechAFX 'QD Jumper' hose (pn 110662) to connect the custom fuel system to a stock LS3 fuel rail on the PACE Perforamance 'Connect & Cruise' LS3 V8 engine. All TechAFX QD Jumpers consist of a production-quality, metal 'Quick Disconnect' fitting crimped on a section of TechAFX PTFE AN BlackWrap hose. TechAFX QD Jumpers have passed numerous new car-level SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) tests--they are literally the same 'Quick Disconnect'-style fittings a new car would come with--Made in the U.S.A. and built to last with today's fuel.
Minimizing Fuel Smell (see 4:22 into the video)
While TechAFX PTFE AN Hose and Fittings prevent fuel emission from the fuel feed system, the PACE Performance Connect & Cruise LS3 V8 fuel smell control to a new level by offering a factory-style EVAP fuel system. This system consists of an electronically-controlled solenoid on the front of the passenger-side cylinder head of the engine that ports fuel vapor from the fuel tank back into the engine--reducing fuel vapor emissions and using that fuel vapor to propel the vehicle.
Check out (at 4:22 into the video) the buildup of the 'Franken-filler' fuel fill tube built by Blair Gehman from BG ChassisWorks & Sidewinder Conversions to provide a pickup-point for the EVAP system. TechAFX -6 BlackWrap hose was then plumbed from the rear of the vehicle up to the EVAP solenoid, then a TechAFX 'Hider Hose' (pn 110411) was used to connect the solenoid to the intake of the PACE Performance LS3 V8. This EVAP system makes a HUGE difference in how much a vehicle smells like fuel, but unfortunately, most people take these off the engine before installing it in a performance application. TechAFX makes it easy to install the EVAP solenoid, and TechAFX products mean it is going to look as good as possible in the process.
The Search & Restore team obviously wanted a fuel system that provided excellent safety, minimized that annoying fuel smell, looked great, was built to last with today's fuel and provided plenty of fuel for the hilariously fun PACE Performance LS3 V8 engine.
'55 Chevy Handyman Wagon Finale
SR2012-04
Final assembly in our last half hour of Chad's '55 Handyman Wagon, including some last minute engine troubleshooting, a "slot car-like" road test with Tim and Tommy, then the family arrives at the Tech Center for what is a very emotional give back.

We had a ball working on this project and we hope that Chad & his family enjoy their new ride!
TechAFX & V8TV Build the CoyoTBird's Fuel System
Youtube Video:
V8TV's latest project is a 1955 "CoyoTBird" that melds the old school elegance of a vintage T-bird, with an easy to live with modern Ford drivetrain. Trevor invited us out to help him decide the best to mate the car's stainless steel EFI fuel lines to the factory inlet on the 5.0L Coyote Engine in the 55 Thunderbird.
After a quick how-to lesson, Trevor was building TechAFX A-N lines & fittings like he'd been doing it for years. Take a look.
Many thanks to Kevin, Kelle, Trevor, & the V8TV crew for their warm hospitality!
Kernal Knowledge: HOW ETHANOL IS WRECKING YOUR ENGINE
Youtube Video:
Ed Syrocki is the owner of EMS Classic Car Care in Warren, MI. Since 1998, he's been specializing in the repair & maintainance of a variety of classic cars & trucks for his loyal customers. He's pretty frustrated with the damage that he sees happening to his customer's cars every day. Damage from today's ethanol-blend fuels. Damage that can happen in a remarkably short period of time to Carbs, Fuel Pumps, & rubber Hoses. Ed's frustration come from the fact that all of this damage comes from the simple act of gas into your prized vehicle.
TechAFX Hoses are "Built for Today's Fuel". Our Hoses & Fittings are designed & tested to stand up to aggressive fuels like gasoline, alcohol, ethanol, methanol, E85, etc.
