I bought a set about 4 months ago........same seller...........they are nice hoses.........be sure that when you install the engine is cold..........and use Black RTV gasket maker on the radiator and engine or the hoses will seep..........and will drive you nutty...........I traded mine for the use of a garage for the winter........and put them on one of my Teams car.........

sorry to get off topic, but do silicon hoses help performance at all or is it just for the looks?
