I was searching the internet for hosing for my truck and stumbled upon this site : http://www.mcmaster.com/ They have umpteen million things for any purpose, from vacuums to cabinets; they even sell hoses and hose clamps in just about every style you can imagine, its pretty neat. Along the way I stumbled upon this federal heater hose, high temp, normal pressure blue silicone with red inside; extra smooth and definately looks nicer than the black I was using and since I used some 5/8 instead on 3/4 i went ahead and swithed out my hose for this.
I had the top end apart and when I put her all back together I unfortunately used Dex-Cool which, from users telling me, I have discovered its crap and I shouldnt be using it. So, the main reason for the switching of the hose was that I was going to have to change the coolant so I figured might as well not get dirty 2x for 1 project.
Im about to be finished and take a shower then clean up the truck and take some pics for my thread: http://www.syty.net/forums//showthread.php?t=49779 more to come.
ps- tell me what you think of that hose and of that site, im open for opinions as always; thanks gents!
