Fuel hose which one

Hi
I am building a locost for the race series

What fuel hose do I go for
A 8mm cotton braded or
B 8mm Stainless braded

I am using a facet fuel pump and a fuel regulator to a weber carb

You don't need braided hose, it just potentially hides damage.

I used 8mm stainless braided ptfe I was told it would last longer than the car, but my build is at about the same stage as yours so not put any fuel in it yet !
