My '68 Mustang has an issue with the fuel system getting heat soaked and looking to remedy the issue. I've already got a spacer on the way to hopefully solve the heat in the fuel bowls but I also have old torn and patchy heat wrap around the lines going to the carb.

Looking at a brand like Funk Motorsport which will set me back about £50 for the amount I need. Alternatively I can buy no brand stuff at 1/3 the price (pick any Amazon seller or various online shops).

Anyone run the cheaper stuff and get good results? It is only £15-20 vs £50 so it's not a huge saving but the level of protection claimed from them all is the same. All bullst? Is it all the same stuff?

You buying this in bulk I assume? Looks like a B2B merchant.

I just googled the product. I’m non uk so doubt my supplier is much use. RS components seem to sell by the metre.
