Bit of an open ended question fella! Depends where you get your stuff and what it's going in. I have done it a couple of times, 727 in a standard floorpan following the route of the standard pipework. Buying from Speedflow I don't think I got any change out of £100. What really bumps up the cost is the adaptors and elbows you need to use to get onto the box in the limited space you have.

Cheaper to get the bits to do the job shipped from Summit than buying from Speedflow.

Yes I've made up a couple of sets, think automotive are good, you need two 1/8NPT to -6AN then I use one 45*-6AN swivel and one 90* -6AN swivel, then -6 hose then on the other end two 90*-6AN into cooler

Name and Shame! :evil:

I should say that my quote was part only and I made them up...

"Torques" on EvilBay are good, with a very fast service.

The quality is not quite up to Speedflow or Earles; but it is fit for purpose and 30% cheaper........

thanks, yes i was expecting £100-£120 at the outside as i dont consider industrial type pipes/crimping as good asthetically as the stuff we use on the race cars etc,
