Another note after I have receieved loads of PM's
The cause for concern is not the immediate future but over time. The ottengier clamps (used in the maggies hose) are only rated at 12 psi of clamping force. The method combined with the rubber hose used creates the problem. Over several heat cycles and pressure surges this hose breaks down and becomes more brittle and less resilient to holding the fuel. Generally speaking in the SAE automotive world fuel hoses should be able to hold 6 times the amount of rail pressure the car is using, which this hose would not come close to complying.
Just a little more back ground and food for thought to sum up several PM's.
