I'd like to buy some aluminium pipes to link silicone hoses in my coolant system, but with the 'flared' ends - where's the cheapest place to buy these made to order? Or are there places that can flare them for me if I source and cut my own pipes?

Cheers

If you are doing a BEC try B&Q.

Colibriman pointed me in the direction of their aluminium tv aerial posts (£8 or there abouts). Come in choice of straight or cranked and are 25mm in diameter, which matched my Kawasaki pipes.

Then just cut them to length and run a angry grinder around the end to make a hollow for the jubilee clip to bite into and hey presto. Join them together with Samco and they look OK.
