paralysis by analysis
For $7.50 each you can have crimped fittings put on hose of choice. Wether it be braided stainless or just high pressure rubber. Thats $30.00. Do the math, what pecentage of $8000 is $30.00. Please do the crimped fittings
If the crimped fittings blow off I will eat my shorts skid marks and all.
Now routing and clamping is another issue in its self. Ideally at the fitting ends no severe bends, not so loose that they move around, use anti chaffing clamps ( no tye wraps as they will quickly degrade over time and will loosen) maybe 6-8" apart along front.
I have not yet installed my cooler as I have other things in line right now. B&M short shifter, sway bars, 4 point and 2 point stiffeners and goodrige brake lines. Hope to have these done by this weekend and maybe the oil cooler next week. But I have to fit it in as we are building a 1989 944 twin turbo track only car. Body has been stripped and roll cage has been installed and has to go out for paint.
