If you are using stock brackets on a smallblock Chevy (and maybe a BBC, I can't remember), you won't need to crimp any hoses. The surefit kits come with everything crimped.

If you run aftermarket brackets, a serpentine setup, change the compressor to the passenger side, run and an Olds or Cadillac engine (yes, there are a few of them here on the board...), Vintage Air provides a "modified hose kit." They don't know what exactly you need, so the ends aren't crimped, and they give you extra hose to make sure it will be long enough for your non-standard application.
