OFFICIAL SAMCO HOSE GROUP BUY

I am not going to get in to a long drawn out debate with you because honestly it's not worth my time for a vehicle. Much more important things in life. I do use common sense, I work for a health insurance company that insures 35,000,000 people in the country and my work entails investigating physicians and their credentials for the entire country and if need be, terminating them. I am quite accurate at research. I am just wondering where the research that you claim I should have done exists other than PMS. Not every one out of the twenty some odd people know whom to PM or even where to go for the itemization of these hoses, just face value with people that we have never even met, or even people that aren't even leading the group buy. There is a certain amount of trust involved in sending your money to a total stranger, however, given that, it is impossible to tell from the pictures exactly what was in the kit. Can you see the lower hose from the PRT Pic?? So, when a group buy came up for radiator and cooland Silicone hoses, one can only assume that both upper and lower are in the kit. Why is it not called a "mask" the rest of the black hoses kit? I guess in this case the assumption didn't work out my way, oh well, however, it doesn't give you the right to crap on people any chance you get on a keyboard because someone doesn't know. With that, I am going night skiing.

its all here ... I knew there had been pictures posted before, it had been talked about before also ... but then again having been around for 6 years I remember these things.

I suggested pming the owners of said hose kits for input as I am sure they wouldn't mind answering questions.

oh yeah, my work ensure countless people are safe when they fly ...

and read back on some of my posts. I don't "crap on people" any chance I get on my keyboard. I sped just about all of my time helping the members here :nonono:

Kyle

Kyle did you receive the new hose yet or have a tracking number with some updates for us? Thanks.

Other then very small differences between the water pump suction and discharge sides, the entire cooling system is under the same pressure. If you believe the lower hose to be the "cool" side, then take your Contour for a spirited drive, shut off the engine, raise the hood, reach down and firmly grab the the lower hose. Report back... :rolleyes:

Well, the package was not the hose, it was actually a return of some parts I had shipped out to the wrong address, I'm sorry.

TY for the update.... but I say you give us Samcos direct number and we keep calling them saying we want to order it and make it seem like a million people want this hose so we can get ours made already...

- amyn
 
I RECEIVED THE HOSE!! Its a piece of easy flex with the proper inlet diameter, its very snug which is great, it flexes nice so that it can work with any aftermarket intake...

however, it was about an inch too short, so my distributor is going to email samco, and get it enlongated an inch and a half so it can be cut if need be, although the way it flexes, wont be a problem.

I wil lbe placeing the order on monday morning guys, and will then have to call them weekly wondering where my kits are, LOL! It will take some time as the orange, green, and black take a little longer, and they are shipping EVERY kit to me for me to ship to the individuals!

I will continue to keep you guys updated... and will get a picture of the hose if necessary, but its only the one hose so its nothing too exciting!

Fantastic!

So I have one question then... forgive me if it was mentioned earlier, but I didn't see it.

Are they shipping all of the hoses at once to you or will they ship out the red and blue kits first with the rest to follow since they will take longer? Let us know. Thanks.

Oh and a picture would be great... as I'm wondering if it truly is going to fit my intake. As I have the factory 1998 OEM E0 anti-moosing piece and I'm hoping all of this wait wasn't in vain... well for me at least.
