Straight coolant tubes

[Runningwild]

Coolant tubes are installed. Straight tubes are much easier. New front driver side holes were a bitch to line up and drill (inside chassis ). Plenty of room now for the cable shift brackets. I'll use silicone bends to finish plumbing the system.

I don't have any direct experience with silicone hoses, but I understand they need to be tightened much tighter than rubber hoses. Just something to keep in mind early so it doesn't bite you later!

We use them on the race car with turbo clamps. Work great. Thanks BDA

What's a turbo clamp look like ? (serious question, I've never had to use/buy one before)

Yes i can vouch for silicone hoses needed a higher clamp pressure especially on stainless steel tubing. I used  Mikalor clamps. and make sure the silicone hoses don't have release agent on them.
