[s-cars] Phenolic spacers & turbo h2o feed line

[David Kase]

Hey Brian.  I just have a comment on the hose.

I would get something from McMaster.  They offer dozens of different 
types of hose.  You can narrow your search down by picking different 
characteristics you are looking for (oil resistance, temp range,...).
The only issue might be the amount you have to buy.  Some may be offered 
by the foot, others may not.

Good luck,
Dave Kase
