upper radiator tube ???

[elgecko]

Hi
Is there a supplier for an upper radiator metal tube that goes from radiator to expansion tank for my FE ? I believe it is 1 3/4" tube. I am using an original style Fluidyne Cobra radiator.
I tried the muffler shops but it "looks" like a piece of bent muffler pipe.
Thanks
Dave

Yes there is! I purchased one for my 428FE. ERA has them, just give them a call and tell them what you need.

mj_duell,

Do you have any pic of this radiator hose. Also do you know the cost?

Thanks

This is probably the best photo that I have. You can look in my gallery for more. The piece is very nice. It is silver and it's powder coated. The ends are flared and offer a great seal. I was very happy with it. I remember it being about $70.00.

Thanks for the info.

Was that a upper and lower pipe kit

I'll check with ERA and see what the price is. Gee, I better check on a bottom hose (tube) also. Like I said ,this is for an original style 427 Cobra radiator.
Thanks for the replies.

My csx car came with them, so I'm pretty sure Shelby sells them, too. Of course that might be one of the parts a Tijuana glass car is waiting for to complete assembly, and its anxiously waiting owner may be upset they sold it to you vs finishing their car.......

Just an upper pipe on mine. I used a CoolFlex hose for the bottom one.

Doug,
I did order a remote oil filter adapter block from Shelby a few weeks ago and would you believe I received it in ONE week. I hope I didn't deplete their stock and delay the delivery of a finished Cobra.

Mike,
I'll check Coolflex for a lower hose.
Thanks
