How would i make a stainless steel upper radiator hose?

I see it on all the balls out race dsm's. Is that just the slip on stuff?

Why would you need a stainless steel radiator hose? The stock hose is fine. If you are doing it for looks, then order the proper diameter steel tubing and take it to someone that can weld really good.

But, to me it seems pretty pointless. You will need to connect it with some kind of hose anyway.

If it's a race team, it's not slip on stuff.

Notice the AN fittings? Looks like people make custom housings. It's going to be a lot of work if you just want it to look cool, I'd just get slip on stuff at that point.

Are you talking about steel braded hose or metal tubing?

There are two ways to go about it if it is steel braided hose you are talking about.

gotta love the old dsmtuners flame. who cares what people think man. do what you want with your car and ENJOY doing it. especially when someone says its "dumb" or a "waste of time"....

i think it actually makes things simple which is always good. it would also would probably make it more dependable if done right...

Yes, if he does do it with the right steel braided hose, it will be more reliable.
