Might do this upgrade to mine in the next month or so. You got one yet?

I must have some in my garage. Although it will have been shortened. If it's any good PM me. Cheers.

I've got them both lying in the garage. Top hose is in perfect nic' - the metal ribs are showing through the plastic (outside) on the bottom one in places. It's still airtight as far as I remember. Postage could be a bit much though. Where abouts in South wales are you?

Having a very early ('93) Chim 400, I replaced the inlet & elbow over three years ago, for smoothbore.

The old inlet on the outside looked "fine", but inside the liner was letting go and blocking/restricting the flow.

I can't understand why you would want someone else's used pipework, as it has a tendancy to do what mine did, but not look outwardly any different from new???

The ACT Kit is very good, a bit mn-power need to get it to fit through the bulkhead at the side of the Radiator.

I think, IMVHO, it's a no-brainer to go smooth bore - yours must be 13/14 years old, at least??
