That's right folks. Glue and heatshrink tubing keeping your radiator hoses on. Just make sure you only drive your car on and off the trailer which is the only action that Camaro sees, to prevent failure. I appreciate the attempt though. Improved options for radiator hose dress up is a worthy concept.
On that particular engine I though the skeleton hose alone looked much better without the skin. You know what they say about pinions and assholes tho! haha
I see bikes in the background. Id like to use the boa clamps on the hd 3/8 oil lines for my fxr build. Any experience running these ? Whats the max psi they are rated for ?
So, if there's a leak, or you blow a hose while driving, then everything gets wrecked taking it all apart, requiring new boa clamps, which one may not carry with him/her while driving around = I'll pass. A standard hose clamp doesn't require anything except a blade screwdriver, and I can install & remove 100 times before I have to replace it.
I don't like the braid look, but bought a similar one with out red cover. It looks great, but ever since install in my street truck, it leaks and has to be sealed again every couple years. Someone just needs to make a sleeve that goes over the hose, thats not just braided. The mess it makes on my polished intake, not worth it.
I am trying to understand this? So you're saying take a very nice stainless steel upper radiator hose and cover it with some cloth? Why would you want to do that? Thanks but no thanks.
Really I would clamp it down then head shrink and when I need to repair it I can just buy heat shrink but you got to clamp it...Ain't no way that's staying on with out clamping it.
I gotta say, considering the time it takes to do one hose I could re-sleave a regular hose and put billet ends on it in 1/4 the time, and easily remove and re-install it. This is not a practical product.
Alfonso D because the engine moves in the engine bay. The reason radiator hoses and such arent just hard lined is because the engines shakes back and forth but the radiator stays still
Because rubber is all you need. This is just for pavement princesses and show cars that dont ever actually do any real driving. When you are putting 15k+ miles on your car every year this will all be caked in grease 75% of the time, even if you properly clean the engine bay, that the looks are pointless.
And then repeat this every time you need to service the car! YAY!!!! Cool for a show piece tho.

So many potential future failure options. I think i'll stick to braided hose with AN fittings.
How the heck do you get it off and on if you need to? Do you have to spend a bunch of money on another kit?

This is a joke. I could take out the entire engine quicker
So if you need to replace a thermostat you buy another hose kit at a ridiculous price. Think I'll stick with real braid
i had a question, i noticed u glued the silicone coupler to the reducer, how effective is that method on daily driven cars???
are they kidding with this product...

Do you guys make these hoses for modern cars & Trucks because I'm looking for a stainless steel hose for a 2006 F150 XLT

Looks great, if you never want to drive the car. To bad if you have to change a hose or radiator.
God forbid you have to remove the hose after install.
after watching this videe i just gonna rattle can mine and put some decals on it.
One time install, how about having to service the system, then you have to take it off. Could get expensive

Too much work
Interesting... But how to install it on a Subaru GRB?
question, is it removable?
GamePrepper lol

thats the sexiest hose ive ever seen awesome
what a pain in the ass. just for a look.
I was about to say the same thing lol, Im gonna pass on this and just clean my old hose
I know
This is the difference between a show winner and show participant...
Brandon Wilson im a driver
how much is this
It’s like origami for your car.
I’m just gonna use normal rubber hoses after watching this...
Seems like a lot of work to get a coolant leak
Really I would clamp it down then head shrink and when I need to repair it I can just buy heat shrink but you got to clamp it...Ain't no way that's staying on with out clamping it.
Everyone this is for a higher performance part. Yall keep comparing it to the original hose lmao

i like stainless better
why use rubber hoses at all on cars?

Unless You Have A Show Car ..Do Not Install ...Temp Issues And They Blow Off
Way better off without the skin
this is going to leak
Too many steps for something so simple and the faded red cover with the dull black ends is not my style
what a useless product...
Sounds like a waist of time and money to me.thats for people with more money than brains.or for a trailer queen that doesn't see everyday road life.
Horrible product design. It is one time shot you have to cut it off lol
Thats gonna be a hard pass for me pimp
GAY! ONLY TOOK 4 HOURS
Looks like crap 👎
i"m sorry i'm not using no glue on my clamps i dont think this is for me
