Samco sport hoses for 8v fs

[ternil@union.edu (Lyman M. Terni)]

I know a lot of guys with VR Corrados run them because the coolant 
system is so taxed in that car that they take any break they can get. 
Factory hoses are 150 for ONE hose, so the overall cost of Samcos makes 
sense, because people who run pushed motors are constantly having 
problems with blowing hoses and stuff. On an 8v though, I'm not so sure 
there is much of a purpose. They look cool though :-D
