It is absolutely essential that tubing beaders
are used when attaching rubber hose to tubing.

This on-line catalog is a bit recalcitrant so don't spend
much time on-line with it. Just download the pdf
by clicking on save the pages.
It is a Holley product so Summit should be selling it.
Apparently they only sell the small ones.
Also check out Jeff's Wiggins couplings on the bottom
of the front page of the ACRE NL web site. These are the ultimate
in plumbing connections. Widely used in aerospace and Formula
1 race cars. Normally they cost over $100 for each coupling.
Jeff is doing you a large favor at only $40 a set as he is
a rotor head through and through :)
