Got the hoses today, must say they look fantastic quality and are well worth the money. Can't say how long they will last, but they fill the need for OEM style hoses that people have asked about.

UPDATE:
As it turned out, these oil cooler hoses were flawed. They same hoses were sold by a number of different Corvette aftermarket parts companies, including Jerrys Gaskets. Our personal failure experience rate was 8 percent at minimum. Considering the failure resulted in a very messy rupture of the outer covering, owners were rightfully upset.

We (Jerrys Gaskets) discontinued sales and all others soon followed.

Our solution was to make our own from scratch, using the least number of fittings and the highest quality of components. This entails the manufacture of our exclusive design CNC billet Oil Cooler adapter, in conjunction with Edelbrock/Russell braided hose & crimp fittings. ALL hoses are made in our shop and pressure tested for leaks by pressurizing with air to 100+ psig & submerged in water & monitored for air bubble leakage for 15 min.

Jerrys Gaskets offers the Oil Cooler Hose set in two versions, braided Stainless Steel & braided black nylon. Kits are complete with all fittings & seals.
