Yes they do! Thank you very much!! I wish the PiThons came with better directions! I see you only used one fitting for the upper rad hose adjacent to the resovoir. I put both up there but I'm not crazy about it. I am certainly not draining and bleeding the system again!

Can anyone confirm that you can reuse the stock clamps on the samco hoses? I used the stock clamps for the lower rad hose going from the rad to the thermostat and couldn't pull them off so I hope they are good! If someone can confirm, I'll be a happy camper!

Thanks!

 

d, you can use the stock clamps except on the on the thin one that goes from the bottom to the top of the block. that s the one just above the pulleys. i tried to put the stock clamp on it and it didn t work so went to pep boys and got a set of clamps. all the others were ok.

 

U Da Man Tony!! I got the PiThons for that hose!

 

Tinman..can you post pictures of the pi-thons on the vacumn hoses?. I noticed that you only used one pi-thon lock on the upper rad hose, why?

Your G looks great

 

thanks
it was a bitch to put that on.so the guy who put them on for me left it out.he inform me about it so and said ok,i'll do it myself later.the problem is i'm so damn lazy and that's why it stay that way.

 

You should be aware that the stock clamps, or standard hose clamps are not 'silicon hose' safe. The edge can cut into the silicon hoses, especially over time.

Highly recommended are clamps like the 'Mikalor' clamps which are higher quality (used by racing teams), and have bevelled edges to protect the silicon.

 

Good call Gord, now where can u find em? I picked up a cheap set at PEPBOYS for the resovoir hose, but I may go grab those just to be safe!

 

They don't have one sized for the generic silicon reservoir hose anyway. The rest of the set works great for the remaining Samco Hoses.

You may have to call around as they can be hard to find. Here're are a couple of links:

In Edmonton, they're available from http://www.autobraun.com/.

 

Sorry for taking so long to post pics, but here one is. I know its kinda blurry, but you can still see how the Samco hoses really draw your eye away from everything else.

 

but that looks good kev!

 

I guess it just depends on what else you have done.

 

see, told ya!

ps-hey, that kinetix plenum, have you dynoed it yet? yeah, i probably should've done a search....and NO, i'm not hijacking this thread!

 

Not yet but Ill post after.
