Samco coolant set - anybody fancy a set cheap!

[Gib#244]

I have a contact on cliosport.net who can get these kits cheap! £150 all in for any colour too. I am thinking of getting one at the end of the month. I was just wondering if anybody else fancies a set and I can pass the mgs on.

Cheers Rich

I would be in red

The full colour chart is on the samco website - The white,camo and other custom colours would be slightly more expensive. But will ask! I liked the urban camo one lol but how long would it stay clean?! haha

 

[Gib#244]

I have given him a shout and he said if I got a number together and pass it on to him he would get them sorted and get them for end of the month oh and if your wondering...there not stolen!

Rich, what's the chance of them being able to do the bottom coolant hose without the "t" to the heater matrix? if they can then count me in, not sure on colour though :wink:

Cheers

I can give him a PM and see what he can do!

Chris I'm pretty sure they just use a standard mould for these hoses and whilst it's always worth asking I doubt you'll get much joy.

It will be cheaper to just fit a 180 degree bend where the heater matrix outlet is, or if this isnt to your high standards how about buying a length of samco super flex and trimming it so that it runs direct to the cylinder head instead of going through the matrix. The moulded hoses are to rigid to just bend it back to the cylinder head.

Also not sure if your aware but the square block that holds the two pipes together (6 inches from the heater matrix engine bay side) actually has an opening to flow coolant between the hoses, can only imagine this is incase of a matrix blockage to avoid overpressurising the system, but this link is also replicated on the samco hose kit.

If you come to motoscope on sun I'll show you exactly what I mean.

Laugh if you may...but would somebody please explain what these do..benefits/purpose etc..

 

[StevieH]

Be warned they are an absolute pig to fit!!!!!!!

 

[Robbo]

I'm confused...I've had a look on the samco website and read through a few things...

But still got a few things i dont understand.

If i was to buy say a viper/maxogen system..would i then replace part of that with these samco hoses?...x..y..z

The hoses transport coolant around the engine and to and from the radiator. The Samco silicone hoses are supposibly better quality (and come in pretty colours) but how often do you hear about coolant hoses bursting ? Not often! More of a styling purpose I think.

You can get Coolant hoses and induction hoses. The induction hose you get with the Maxogen/Viper can be replaced with Samco silicone ones if you wish. The Maxogen comes with a silicone induction hose anyways.

 

[Gib#244]

He can get induction hose's too slightly cheaper than the standard price I have already chose my colour :wink:
