I am looking for some high temp hose to use with my conversion. I've seen that quite a few people with water cooled are running these from teh radiator to the engine.
I've tried various places with no luck. I would appreciate it if someone can tell me where I can purchase this from. Also, What is the recommended diameter to use for the hose. Thanks. |

This is taken from some spare pieces I have left from a recent Renegade kit:
As marked on hose- "Gates Green Stripe II Heater Hose 1-1/4" MO1170" This one is installed from outlet of radiator to inlet of water pump. Note: this is a I.D. measurement. "Gates Green Stripe II Heater Hose 1" MO2122" This one is used as a return hose from discharge of block (thermostat housing, fill port etc.) to inlet of radiator. Also used at discharge of water pump to inlet on block (2) ea. Note: this is a I.D. measurement. Wall thickness of both hoses measure 3/16". John |

Yup, that's what I used on my conversion, gates green stripe 1" and 1 1/4" purchased from McMaster Carr.
It turned out to be pretty cheep, and I didn't have to pay shipping because I will-called the order. |
