I'm in the midst of putting together a dual pass vertical radiator setup.

I am looking to setup the radiator hoses. My question is, would you recommend going to an aluminum pipe type setup, or just sticking with plane jane cut up radiator hoses?

Aluminum or Stainless. Better looking.

im leaning towards that too. i have a tig so the welding itself is not problem. I have two concerns:

1. Sourcing the tubing and bends
2. Flex in the motor mounts. I would only connect these with short couplers.

I used stainless on my setup.

I did mine in aluminum, but my motor is solid mounted.

i use ss and with silicone couplers and tbolt clamps. i also roll beads into all the tube ends.

As long as you have a hose coupler on each end, motor movement shouldn't hurt anything.

i just ordered a 26x16 radiator that i will convert to a dual pass style along with some aluminum 1 1/4 bends and straight sections.

Ill keep everyone posted on how it turns out.

BTW i am picking up the parts to make my own bead roller.
