I am currently using AN fittings with a steel braided hose.

With my new turbo and manifold my old steel braided hose and AN fittings wont work because the turbo sits close to the ground and there for the hose is to long.

What other type of hose and fittings would work?

I was thinking along the lines of barbed fittings going into the turbo and using a hi temp resistant rubber hose...

Products - Swagelok

They are expensive, but they can work with different matterials. Like stainless fittings to stainless tubing, brass fittings to copper tubing. I can get a number to a local vender and ask them questions for you.

it some to not have any uphill sections in it. does not make me feel
comfortable at all :|

I'm using Gates LOL PLUS high oil resistance push lok hose. Found it on ebay for pretty cheap and works well. Stiffer than heater hose and rated for high temps and oil. Plus I can LOL that I'm using LOL hose.
