Samco sport silicone hoses
Fit is awsome they are molded exactly the same as stock and the kit comes with every hose to replace the stockers, they should last forever being silicone.
The optional SS clamps are a waste tho the stockers are better quality.
When I ordred mine the only colour available was red but they can get others.
Its dark outside so I'll snap a pic tomorrow.

The bursting pressure is A LOT higher than stock also silicone lasts longer and resists swelling.Ported&Polished wrote:Now explain to me why they are better than stock please.

Really? Thats a trip Ive always thought silicone was more expensive to make. I remember getting a set of hoses for the intake on a turbo honda, they cost a small fortune for what amounted to 8" of hose.

Re: Samco sport silicone hoses
They offer the clamps so you don't pinch the hoses in standard hose clamps. I have a set on my VW and am glad I got the clamps - managed to mangle one of the ends. That and the connections have to be clean in order to stay put once tightened down.britincali wrote:

The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

That makes perfect sense, I used the clamps from the kit on all but the lower rad crossover connection and I noticed them digging into the hoses.
