Re: Check this out
That is pretty cool. Do you plan to run it? I would be worried that a rock would come up and take it out.

Re: Check this out
Yeah I'd be nervous about breaking it. Can you take a pic of it out of the hose?

Re: Check this out
Thats cool......I found some on line @ www.killerglass.com
Their pitch.... No more need to open the cooling system to check for a blown head gasket or cracked block or even a blown or restricted water pump. This is a essential piece of equipment for the serious racer that demands minimum "pit in" time. A simple glance at the crystal clear accumulator will tell all you need to know. No more need to open the hot system or pressure test to locate head problems. Similar systems have been in use since the late 60's but never have they been able to stand up to the heavy abuse of racing much less the ability to produce a clear view. These things work!! Also check out the test....They hammer a nail with one of the glass tubes and then run it over with an f-250....Pretty Crazy!
