I am really impressed with your project, great job guys. It may not apply to your setup but on my turbo car I have gone away from silicone hoses and
gone to straight radiator hoses instead . I was bursting silicone braided hoses at connections whereas with the multiple braided cooling system hoses
I use now are really tough . I have been running between 30 to 40 psi with no problems . The other thing is it is cheaper. Good luck with your project

Thanks Mike McCarthy for for your reply an comment on the rebuild project , i did wonder about the radiator hose verses silicone hose ,i have no
experience with Turbo/ Blower motors ,an thought the silicone should be better, so will keep your info for future , ive still got fair bit to do
before running , Pete
