Hi all,

Looks like i've found me a car

I'm planning to whip the engine out whilst the shell is in the bodyshop and have a general clean up session on it - inside and out!

Wanting to use red silicon hoses all the way under the bonnet - wondered which brand you lot'd recommend and the cheapest i can get them?

I'm looking really at SFS, Samco & Roose - but would look at others depending on quality and price...

These are going to be for boost, coolant and ancil - Cheers!

 

Got roose on my cosworth and done a few track days,no split hoses or anything

 

Id say roose or samco get on e-bay cheap as chips lol

 

I've got some Blue SFS ones. look smart and haven't had any probs with them.

 

i got sfs on mine just as good as samco

 

I was told by a hose supplier that sfs ARE samcos under a different name. Altho their respective websites both have different premises & advertise different rally teams, so maybe this isn't true.

The Roose ones are thicker grade also.

 

I have the Roose on mine.

3drStretch who post on here suppiles them mail order, give him a PM and he will sort you.

 

sorry to 'jack but im after getting some 1 off bits done, ne1 know wo would be up for it??

 

The person that set up SFS apparantly used to work at Samco and ran off with the moulds which is why the SFS hoses are similar to the Samco hoses and are the same length and don't always fit properly.

My Dad has used SFS, Samco, Mocal and now Roose. The Roose hose is massively thick...

My own hoses are shiny black Roose hoses.

 

samco

 

Samco too

 

samco all round quality hoses

 

I have blue sfs's. No probs or splits.

 

how come there are 7 anciliary hoses in the sfs kit, and only 3 or 4 ancil. hoses in the samco kits? another thing do they tell u which hose goes where, cus if i buy a pack with 7 long thin hoses and no clue as to what goes where ill cry

 

get roose hoses, the quality and fit is a lot better than samco or sfs !
