Top Radiator Hose

[Bill H]

Has anyone had to replace their top radiator Hose lately?

I have had a new header tank fabricated & want to finish the job nicely.

I have purchased a nice collared flexible pipe for the header to heater but I cant find a nice black 150mm long 38/35mm reducer pipe to pass under the fan belt to the radiator.

Not that keen on silicon as it it will stand out against the others.

Is there one out there that can be repurposed?

Cheers

Hello Bill,
I have checked various "scrap yards" and found something fitting very nicely from an older VW (I think Ken would have done the same)  and it does look original, doesn´t it ...
Cheers

Hi Bill give Samco hoses a try. Google Merlin Motorsport they do the complete range including a classic matt  black. Has original looks. They do reducers etc. Hope it helps Paul
