Anyone know of a good place for Samco hoses? Or stainless ones too I guess? Not sure if I can just use a universal hose or not - would feel a little safer buying something designed for the car rather than on the $25 rack at Pep Boys

Or should I just buy another OEM one for the $15 bucks and call it good? I see the Samco MSRP is almost $200 - and I have to say I'm not really interested in red or blue hoses. I would probably just get the black ones anyways.

Planning to have the G rolling til the snow allows it no more.

As far as Samco radiator hoses, I'd check with Lou from Amplified Motorsport or Lance. Only two people I'd recommend.

Cool - I checked out Amplified's site, but I will PM him and Lance for pricing

On side note - I finally rolled 150k Friday morning on my way to work. I was gonna snap a picture, but I wasn't in the right frame of mind at 6am headed to work. lol

Dang - saw that Blueslate just sold a black set with Earls clamps a couple weeks ago. Exactly the setup I would be going for, for half the price.

I would steer away from silicone hoses, rubber hoses do what they are meant to do. Why mess with something that isn't recommended for street use, I personally don't see a reason not to use oe rubber.
