Actually, with a long run, the larger diameter hose is called for to keep
the pressure loss down going to and from the remote radiator. Is it 7 ft

Yep.  From the engine compartment, all the way back behind the cockpit.


Where did the 2" hose requirement come from?  Wasn't Tracy running with

5/8" hose to his radiators?  Can we get a survey of working installations to
see what size hose is sufficient?

This is a significant issue for me.  I'm considering a remotely located

radiator.  Running 2" hose for 7ft or so is out of the question.
