Title: AAZ Silicone Engine Coolant Hose Assys
Post by: GEE-BEE on December 01, 2009, 08:38:00 pm
Is there enough interest on this product ( AAZ Engine )to have these made in a pre-molded silicone assys

I have another MFG that will tool up for this application with no tool-charge for 25 set's

Please advise?

Thet currently have the MK1 ( Rabbit ) 4 Assys in four color's

I only know of samco of the U.K. and the exchange rate is high $$

how much $ are we talking about here, for the AAZ or the Rabbit ones?

I would love a full silicone hose setup, but the price is always way to much

Yellow , black, red , blue

4 assys for the mk1

95.00 for the set

Want a pic ?

Iam going to get a set and see what it includes , Iam also going to compare to what is on the engine and see what we need to make a engine set versus a body set

Body: upper & lower radiator
3 coolant lines to body
coolant line to res tank

a pic to see what is exactly in the kit would be great, and $120 doesn't sound too bad.

There is also SFS performance in the UK, they have just made me some silicone hoses for the 1.6TD Vanagon as VW made them obsolete.

I would definitely be interested in some Samco style hoses for a mk3 AAZ if that's possible, the price is right for sure!

FOR A MK III WE WILL NEED A COMPLETE SET , NO TOOLING SETUP ( COST ) FOR 25 SET'S

AAZ Engine :

MK3 Body: number of assys ?

I have the tooling ( mandrell's ) for the Toyota Tundra & Sequoia which I own and sell the 5 assy's to TRD racing ( Toyota )

Iam going to pull a set from a AAZ motor and go from there...

It would be nice to have a set for Vanagon applications, as Brickwerks noted, they are NLA and getting expensive, particularly here in the US...

Show of hands for interest in Vanagon Diesel silicone hose sets? I have a set loose right now that could serve as molds.

Are the originals destroyed in the process? Not that it really matters since I'd be using the silicone hoses... ;)

These are quite a bit more complicated than the MK1 or AAZ engine hoses;

Any idea on costs per set on a 25+ run?

Iam going to need a 8v and 1.6 Diesel original set, the samco stuff is based on european model and doesnt fit

I think that the upper and lower 8v and diesel radiator hoses are the same ( 2 )

1each,same with coolant resv tank hose

2each ,Hoses from firewall to heater core ( straight hose )

2each,to bypass valve and return firewall to engine ( straight to 90's )

It's all the lower 8v that is different to the 8v

Gee-Bee

Iam moving forward with this and would like to thank all the help from members here

AAZ Engine

MK III BODY

Mk1 8V ( Caddy and 1.6 n/a diesel )
