Purosil Hoses experience?
Based on anecdotes I've read regarding the cost/difficulty of hard-to-reach
coolant and breather hose replacement, I've been researching silicon-based
alternatives. Samco appears to be one well known option, but although TAP
carries some of their line, they are a UK co. However, I just ran across a
US company called Purosil. They have a pretty comprehensive web site and
say all the right things about turbo and coolant applications. On the
website, they have a variety of hoses which look a lot like our Michelin
man. They apparently sell to the turbo truck market and boast a 1M mile
guarantee. They also mention race car applications.
I called: They have a catalog, and they'll sell direct with a minimum $100
order, COD or net 30.
Anyone have experience with them? I'm interested in replacing at least all
the problematic hoses before the engine goes in the car...
