Engine swap, coolant question
Putting a KR into my Mk1 caddy and wondered what coolant hoses i should be using? Mk2 16v with mk1 top hose? If someone could let me know that'd be cool.
Cheers,
Tom.

Probably the Mk2 hoses with a little trimmed off top and bottom rad hoses.

you could happly use a mk2 hose cut down with a stainless insert. I have a mk2 silicon coolant set on my mk1 as it was over 1/2 the price of the mk1 set up! the top hose has been cut as the mk2 hose is longer, and I have fitted a stainless pipe in the middle with a clamp on either end and its never leaked, even when being ahmmered on track.
