Where do I buy radiator hose?
Can anyone tell me a good place to buy radiator hose? I'm gonna need straight bits, bends and t-pieces by the looks of things, anyone know of a
good supplier?

Merlin Motorsports have good selection. I got some Samco ones from them. Samco stuff bit pricy but good if you need to make up tricky shapes or need
reducers.

Yeah I had a look at Merlin but they do look very expensive, is there anywhere that does cheaper stuff or is this just the going rate?

i got tubes from europa, they do a wonderful flexible one called vulcoflex, you can tie it in knots without it kinking. I think this is the same as
the halfords one. I need to find a 32/32/16mm copper t-piece myself, but once you have this then the vulcoflex hoses are perfect.
Beware! Bourettes is binfectious.

Cheers Joel, I had a look at their site and I think they'd probably be perfect. I'll need T-pieces as well soon but haven't
finalised what sizes I need. I did see some in B&Q this afternoon but they look a bit too small I think, let me know if you find a good
stockist

I'm sure there must be somewhere that sells T-pieces, I'm sure they must be a fairly common requirement.
Maybe someone else has used them and knows where to get them...?
