EvoDunc Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Afternoon chaps. I'm after a set of silicone hoses for my SLR but have come across a few problems. I see Demon Tweeks sell SFS sets for the 1800 but when I rang SFS direct they said they only make hoses for the 1600. My question is: Are the coolant hoses different from a 1600 to a 1800 K series? Any help would be great. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F355GTS Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Should all be the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 That's true. Isn't there a difference between the sets required for a DS car to clear the pump etc. though? The only other variation I can think of would be if you wanted to include a heater (falls to the ground, laughing) Project Scope-Creep is live...

Support Team Shaun_E Posted May 11, 2005 Support Team Share Posted May 11, 2005 No difference between 1600 and 1800. Radiator bottom hose is different between wet and dry sump. The dry sump one is taller to allow the "submarine" pipe to clear the scavenge pump. The full DS setup includes about 7 hoses some of which go around the back of the engine and include a heater by-pass. I have just used lengths of straight silicone hose to connect my heater up. Caterham sell all these hoses separately as well as the 3 hose kit on the web site. Yellow SL #32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
