Has anyone got any idea where i can source new top and bottom rad hoses please? for a Mk1 350i
The top hose is a long radius 90 degree bend and the bottom hose is a tighter radius 's' bend with a piece of straight 200mm x 35mm diameter pipe inserted. (I need that too)
Any help appreciated

Samco or similar? Should be able to get it from pipe stockists. Be tackling it shortly myself I think. Just done all the breather and expansion tank stuff.

Edited to add

I have been toying with buy the bends and using metal straights.

samco stuff looks good but without knowing which car they may have been sourced from its pretty hopeless.

Doh! Didn't think of that. He did a swan neck for me off a fag packet drawing I sent, top stuff. Must remember to ask when I get me wallet out for the hoses.

Ignore my previous.

All sorted! Managed to find longer hoses with the correct bends that could be cut to fit.

Top hose... Quinton Hazell QH-RH1904 Cost £4

Bottom Hose... Quinton Hazell QH-RH1905 Cost £5

Thanks for all the suggestions and to Tim at ATC who im sure would have sorted it too.
