greddy dp replacement- ARTech or Begi?
#41
I'm also a bit confused about this as well. My friend used a standard oil hose to the hole he tapped in his pan and it split during a track day from being to close to the manifold and started leaking. When I went to the high end plumming supply place to get my braded stainless hose and AN fittings for my oil drain line I was worried about the same issue so I asked them what I could use for heat protection. They gave me hose cover called Firesleeve from Parker http://www.parker.com/portal/site/PA...=FS-F-14&Wtky=
It doesn't actually look like the wrap they show on the website. It is basically a tube with orange silicone around a braded soft fiberglass sock.
In the end my braded hose is no where near the manifold so I didn't use the Firesleeve. However, I was thinking it would be good to put over the heater hoses that run so close to the DP. I could see why the thin foil could be good to protect them by reflecting back the heat but it seams like this Firesleeve could act like a silicon oven mitt and insolate the hoses from the extra heat?
It's pretty expensive so I'll return it if it isn't going to help protect the hoses from external heat.
