Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

Somebody out there has probably already figured out a solution ?

I searched the archives, but didn't find any help.

Roadster with a swapped SR20DET motor and upgrading to a much thicker
Civic radiator. My current rad hoses are cut elbows joined in the middle with
steel pipes and hose clamps. Works, but not very elegant and too many potential leaks !

I am thinking there HAS to be a better way !
Can anybody provide part numbers or description of ready made rad hoses
that will work for this setup ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You have the answers on your engine already!

Remove the hoses from the radiator and engine (but don't disconnect the couplers).

Go down to your favorite local auto parts store and find matching hoses on the shelf-- trust me, they are out there.

This is what we do on all of our conversions.
