Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 512 Rads up date

[Peter Rychel (dino308gt4]

Good call on the silicone hoses. They'll hold up better from engine bay heat over time. Use the correct style hose clamps, because regular screw-type clamps tend to pinch where the band meets and it'll cause a ripple in the hose (with a possible leak). Not only is there a chance for pinching, but the screw slot openings tend to cut the hose as well (even happens with nitrile hoses if you tighten them too tight). "Mikalor" makes the best clamp for silicone hoses.

Too bad about the passenger side radiator...

The drivers side unit went it with no issues

However the passenger side unit the upper pipe was too short to place a hose on it so it had to go back

I have aslo installed silicone hoses
