What's the benefit in running green stripe? Is it because it is tough and is exposed to the elements when run beneath the car?
Green Stripe is good.Parker flex is better!Super tough carcass,and is made for bending in a tight radius.
Wonder what the cost difference is?
Yup, its all good.
O'reilley auto parts sells green stripe 5.99$/ft for the 1-1/4"
NAPA sells the 1" for 5.98$/ft and the 1-1/4" for 5.77$ per foot. (yellow stripe).
Renegade will sell you a hose package for 120$.
Not to be an ingrate but what is the "benefit" of running green strip hose. In other words why are people using this high priced hose over std heater hose??? BTW, thx for the pic's and referrals.
It's tough, intended for harsh marine environments, and wound with a spring steel insert to maintain shape and prevent vacuum collapse.
.....& with the horizontal bends, doesn't kink under pressure
(as stated "tough")
I'm not running exposed but that "tight radius" ability may require that I use it. Regular heater hose is cheap enough that I can install a piece to see how well it works. Whichever it is I'll put it down in my build thread. Once again the "collective World mind" has helped greatly.
I am partial to Redstripe myself, if I must have a watered down beer...redstripe all the way..
