They sure are easier on the hands compared to traditional compressions, you can screw them with the included tool (if you buy a 6 pack).

I've never had problems with compression fittings, are you referring to a specific brand?

I don't recall a particular brand. Just have heard multiple people saying they are more likely to leak that regular barbs.

well from my own experience, the only compression fittings i know to have leaked are the ones that you can turn, not the regular.

I can confirm that some of the heat shrinks are not equal in length, but they are not that notable unless you are look at them at very close distance

They look great...Please post some pics when you get them installed...:toast:
