    I have what came with my 818. I'm in Hingham, MA. No idea what a decent price is, but not much.

    Here's my situation.

    I have an Arntz Cobra where the engine is set back 10 inches from normal for weight distribution.

    Depending on how long the hoses are, I may need 2 sets to get to the radiator in the front of the car.

    I will also need the rubber couplers.


    Thanks,

    Jim

    I read that some owners had changed over to aluminum pipe, and figured that these corrugated FF radiator hoses might be available.

    I've been offered some hoses for just paying shipping, and will take them up on their gracious offers.



    Thanks,

    Jim
