For connecting hoses, the all time favorite is the Gates Green Stripe
rubber hose, sold in bulk lengths per foot. You may have to order it. In a
properly set up Pantera, ALL the hose sections will be straight so a couple of
feet of Green Stripe, cut to length, works fine. Next, good quality screw-type
stainless steel hose clamps are also necessary.
With silicone hose, it is soft and extremely sensitive to nicks & cuts. It
really requires special aircraft-style hose clamps that have a protective
'tongue' to keep the soft silicone from extruding out of the clamp slot and
getting nicked. The hose will always fail along the nick. Good luck- J Deryke
