Before 2014, I was selling the same aftermarket hoses as Ecklers, ZIP and other Corvette parts stores. They were all coming from the same source. About 7% of the hoses we sold turned out to be defective.

Mar 2014 we started making hoses in-house, utilizing the Edelbrock/Russell hose and hose end fittings, along with our design for the Oil Cooler/Hose Adapter. Corey Henderson made the adapters for us, CNC machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum and then anodized for looks and durability. We make the hose set in 2 versions, braided black and braided SS. They are both rated the same for pressure & temp, so it a matter of personal choice.
