Yeah, I thought Tracy and yourself were using the
smaller hoses with the pretty AN fittings,
Hi Todd, If I'm not mistaken, Tracy is just using high quality
automotive hose. That's what I'll be using on the next project, because
these dang AN hoses are just too expensive, and seem pretty silly when you're
running 0 psi on the cooling system. I'm also convinced that AN fittings
have more evil leaks than I've ever seen on standard hose with clamps.
Seems like I'm always fiddling with some tiny little leak.
and there is no doubt
that Tracy at least has been successful (and I'm sure you'll be right behind him
:-),
If I have
to be right behind someone, at least Tracy is a good choice
:-)
but I still stand by my
theory that if the automakers use no less than 1.25" hoses, then why would
should we when we have a higher heat rejection requirement.
Certainly a
good argument, but if it's clear that you don't need the larger hoses,
then I'm really confused why they do it. This is about the
point were Al will appear to do some math for us
:-)
Cheers,
Rusty (bring on the green
beer)
