Have just completed major rationalization of my radiator piping. Replaced four sections of tube with fleet grade rubber hose (pieces from engine compartment to center sill and from gas tank to radiator). Wanted to do more but that's all practical (nobody told me tubes hold up my gas tank). To do this I had to buy a 50 foot roll. Now I've got more odd size water hose than a man could ever think of uses for. If anyone would like some of NAPA's finest 1.25" hose (this really is nice stuff -- noticeably thicker than even formed hoses), I'll sell it by the foot, $2 per. That's almost half my cost -- my biggest concern is getting the huge roll out of my house (but I can't just give it away!). Contact me direct at: brobertson"AT"carolina.net. For the curious, I re-routed the radiator bleed to a tee in my heater core return. Bill Robertson #5939
