[DML] Re: Ribbed radiator piping to water pump?

["therealdmcvegas" <dmcvegas@xxxxxxx>]

You can get the hoses @ any auto parts store. It's just a universal 
hose, that comes with a spring inside. However, the fittings on the 
waterpump are larger than those on the pipes. So you'd then need an 
adaptor. Hervey over @ SpecialTAuto sells one. I made one myself from 
another length of small hose, but it still dribbles no matter how 
tight I've applied the hose clamps (will be changed out soon).

Your best best is to just stick with stock, and only use the 
universal hose in an emergency situation.
