Re: What size pipe to use for upper RAD hose replacement
be sure you put some sort of ridge or lip on each end if you make a pipe.
If your system builds up too much pressure, it could blow the rubber hose off the metal pipe.

Just TIG welded it up from two 90 degree bends with a ring of 3/16 stainless filler rod for the lip to hold the elbows on. I get mine from : http://www.burnsstainless.com but JEGS, Summit, Vibrant has it as well. Silicon elbows from: http://www.siliconeintakes.com |
