Help with various hose diameter !
Well I've almost got the engine bay done however I dont know the inner diameter of various hoses I need to replace.
There's a coolant hose coming off the x-over on the heads, this leads into the throttle body (drivers side), theres another hose coming off the TB leading to the radiator.
I also need to know what size the power steering hose is (drivers side).
Thanks in advance....

Are you still working on replacing with all silicone hose? I still haven't found a good place that sells the rad hose for a decent price.
I can give ya the ID of the hose you're talking about as soon as I get home (around 1:30) I have mine removed as I'm getting the crossover pipe chromed

OK well here's the deal, rather problem.
I'm running the FAST 78mm TB and of course it has no provisions for the radiator fluid passthorugh. So I figured that maybe I could get away with using an AN end on the x-over side (compression fitting on the the x-over) and using an earls braided hose which would simply slide on the radiator side, then clamping it (radiator side) with an earls chrome econo worm clamp.
Does anyone have a solution that doesnt require welding an AN fitting to the damn x-over ?
Right now I have no way of connecting the two different hoses together and I don't wanna rig it - I want a clean look.

Got your PM Jay, did you ever hear anything from Thunder on the shipping date for the MBA billet pulley ? I was wondering cause my powdercoater is sitting on his hands waiting for all my stuff.
