Default DOUBT

Hi,

I am mounting a Pro alloy rs500 in the escort cosworth and need a Silicone Hose elbow 180º to re-circulate the water.

Which is the diameter that I need?? These exist in ... 16mm, 19, or 22mm?

Thank you for your answers.

Thanks!!



Sorry for my poor english..

He's most likely talking about re-piping the water from the original charge cooler - Pro Alloy do a kit for this.

if you look at the horse shoe type of pipe in front of the turbo, thats what is needed to re-circulate the water....it goes from the thermostat housing onto the metal pipe going to the heater system.

i got mine from Roose motorsport.

sorry..not sure of the diameter.

you can turn the elbow on the thermo housing around to meet the metal water pipe or fit a sierra cos 4x4 thermo housing with the elbow facing the bulkhead already.
