Gentlemen

What hoses do you need for fiat rads?

Are you buy just bends? Or from a car & cutting them down?

I'm using a round nose

I chopped up a variety of mini and metro hoses.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I needed an MPI bottom hose (mainly to get around the charger belt clearance issue), mini top hose, some ali tube joining bits and 2 90ยบ bends which I got of ebay in green silicon

I just used silicon bends and linked them with ally pipes.

not very good pics.... but should give an idea......

I used the metro thermostat housing, a pre 1984 metro top hose, mini bottom hose, and the rest is cheap silicon 90deg bends and ally tube.... I tigged a small T into the bottom ally tube, which runs up to the (cinq) header tank.
