Chad, 

For the main cooling lines, I chose wiggins style couplings and aluminum tubing.  They are robust and lightweight.  Same design as used in the Voyager.  The downside is the cost of the wiggins couplings, and the aluminum tubing must be carefully fitted and welded.

Hi all,

What is everybody doing for radiator hoses? I see one option is to uses braided + AN fittings, but those are expensive and heavy. Is there a consensus on an "ideal" way to run these lines?

Regards,
Chad
