Looking for recommendations for braided power steering hoses (Ford "plastic" pump and Fox body power rack)

Just did the Breeze kit in November. Easy and clean installation!

I used Russell Powerflex hose and AN style fittings on my MK4 and on my 70 Mustang restomod in progress. The cost is less that the Aeroquip and I have read people have had some issue with the Fragiola products.
I used Russell hose almost exclusively on my Factory Five without issue and I built the car more than 10 years ago. I use and like their products. I have only had one issue with anything I bought from them. On the MK4, I had the HP hose to the PS rack start weeping after several years of use. The leak was not at the fittings, but rather in the middle of the hose somewhere. The leak was bugging me as I was preparing the car for delivery to the second owner. I eventually wrapped the hose in paper towels to verify my theory. Sure enough, leak was about in the middle of a 3 ft. length of hose. I replaced the length of hose and ferrules in the hose end fittings and never looked back. My guess was that the hose internal to the braided SS sleeve must have been partially punctured during manufacture. What can I say, stuff happens.

Just some FYI. Braided P/S hoses are noisy. The factory rubber ones are not. FFR just started to include S/S braided P/S hoses in the Power Steering kit. The older ones used the Fox body factory style rubber hoses. The rubber is almost 5x quieter IMO. Just my 2 cents worth.

I'm doing a Coyote with a separate reservoir, so Breeze's wasn't quite perfect for me. I got this from Summit: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G3160#overview and this: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-340202P

Full disclosure, they're still in the box, I'll let you know how it goes.

FWIW - the contents of the Breeze "kit" are completely customizable. I was running a PS cooler and needed additional hose, as well as some additional fittings and different fitting angles to make everything work. I called Mark up and talked through what we needed and he put together a kit with everything I needed.
