[AMC-list] hose & fittings for main oil supply

[tom jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx>]

Is push-on hose barbs and worm clamps actually safe and reliable enough for
an engine's main oil supply? For my full-flow hack I've been trying to work
out crimp or flared tubing systems, assuming that barb and clamp is too
hokey for something so critical, but all of the "oil filter relocation" kits
on Summit and Jeg's use just that.

There's "good enough" and "good" and I want "GOOD!". Assuming I use best
quality and correct hose and parts, is there any reason not to use barb and
clamp? I do tend to overengineer (with no regrets generally) but this job is
a PITA to do with anything else.
