Found a small coolant drip sounds like good enough reason to get these babies.I know that you need to use shielded stainless clamps on these. anyone ever put a set on? any tips? Thanks

Yeah, I have a red set, and they are pimptastic. Super easy to swap out, and I honestly can't remember if they came with new clamps or not. If they didn't i just used my factory clamps, and I have not had any problems for years. They fit great, and look schweet! This would also be a good time to change your thermo housing, fan switch thermo, etc, as the cooling system will be pretty much drained all over the floor.

I was gonna replace that stuff, good point. You know that housing will crack if you don't or the termostat will go out....just murphy's law. haha
