[DeTomaso] Help with Modifications

[LARRY FINCH]

if you go to the effort to remove your OEM tubes there is another option besides the stainless steel tubes Gerry mentioned. During the reassembly of 2511 I elected to remove the tubing that was in place and I replaced it with 5/8 inch silicone hose purchased from eBay. I was very impressed with the flexibility and ease of installation using this hose. 

Cost for two 10 foot lengths was about $125 and you should get silicon-compatible clamps, also.

I was able to run the water pump hose all the way to the heater core in one piece, and the engine block hose likewise, with the exception of a silicone 90? elbow to get things started. 
 
Nice thing about using hose is this can be done with your engine still in place.
