    Looking for the gray lay flat breather hose that is used on most of the Top Fuel cars. Anyone know where to get it?

    Home Depo also has a spiral wound flexible plastic hose.

    We run a blown alky dragster and have gone from the clear plastic to the flat hose to the spiral wound plastic.

    We have found we have found the pressure required to blow open the bends on the flat kind has caused leakage on the covers etc. as opposed to the spiral wound that maintains its shape,the clear was just too damn stiff.

    We use the Adel Wiggins clamps on the covers so we do not have any issues with removal and the flexible hose stays in place better when the covers are off, the flat hose would always be drooping to the bottom frame rail.We were worried that the spiral wound would not take the heat but have had no problems yet, of course it is a little heavier than the flat hose so you will never see it on a fueler.

    I know every car is different just letting you know what worked best for us after trying all three.
