What is the best material to use for the coolant lines that is reasonable in cost? I'm seeing on pirate that everyone is using anything from DOM, to aluminum, to EMT, to pipe and even rubber hose.
Thoughts? Whatever I use, must be very reliable...
I think someone was overthinking this. You'd want that connection to have some give for vibration and the frame flexing. Same at the radiator. At least that's why I'd use the hose.Tatsadasayago wrote: The connection to the engine and rad were rubber hose which prevented electrolysis stripping of the copper by the cast iron engine block.
