I prefer higher flow than either macroline or ss braid. Shocker line and fittings are a little harder to come by so I am using some stuff that's the same exterior size as macroline but has a huge internal cavity.

i have a check-it unimount. yes they will work on ur marker. the only problem i have is that my macro-lines 90. elbow wont fit into the unimounts hole. it goes about 1/4 the way into it but then it gets too hard to screw like it doesnt fit. can someone help me!

sounds like your using to much teflon tape (i prefer thread selant dope) or i would just try a different one

Same here, only have used macro line on my Speed 05. Works great and never had a problem. The WDP macroline fittings hold the line much better than your standard macroline fitting. At least, that is what I have noticed.

Oh yeah, the Check-It Unimount works great and they now make them in dust color to match the 05's finish.
