Chris Wilson Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 And how would one compress a carbon hose onto the hard fittings? I think you are a bit off track here, somewhere. The stock rubber hose is fine if rotated correectly before the clips are tightened or released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the bling bling stainless steel versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 How thick is the carbon pipe, just asking because you need to make sure you have a good seal and it could be easy to overtighten the clamp and crack the carbon pipe if it's thin. This is a new one on me, I've not heard of carbon fibre being used to carry fluids before, must be getting old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/merchant/supramkiv_mvpcfradpipe.shtml The international shipping is no hassle at all; Dusty is a very helpful chap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
