Re: hoses

Dennis: Just about any parts house (foreign or domestic) will have
these. You can get by with one 30 or 36 inch stock piece because
they usually stretch (accordion style) so that you can cut two
pieces for both sides. Oftern referred to as "pre-heater hose". Cut
easily with a pair of you wife's good sewing scissors! (Ok, find
your own scissors). A pair of hose clamps on each side ensures that
they won't fall off and get tangled in your generator belt. Clancy

Re: hoses

I know everyone loves chrome, but did you guys know that the reason
everything is black under your hood is because black disapates the
heat better then any other color? Clancy good point about clamping
the hoses on both ends. I see too many cars for sale where the guys
aren't clamping the hoses.
