1 =E2=80=93 =C2=BD=E2=80=9D heater hose from heater core to heater valve =
or =E2=80=9CT=E2=80=9D piece and from valve to temp sender block

All other hoses are 5/8=E2=80=9D heater hose

I put a hose interchange list on TEAE web site that can help you=20

Sunbeam Specialties carries hoses

=20

=20

2 =E2=80=93 vacuum hard line is 3/16=E2=80=9D with double compression =
fittings on the original stock line

If you buy a formed vacuum line from one of the Mustang catalogs =
=E2=80=93 the line is too long and needs to be shortened at each end =
=E2=80=93 Tiger length is about 25=E2=80=9D=20

=20

3 =E2=80=93 5/16=E2=80=9D fuel line hose =E2=80=93 4=E2=80=9D long =
=E2=80=93 original hose has a very rough outside texture

=20

4 =E2=80=93 the original Ford ignition wires used both 90 and straight

Original style wire sets available in Mustang catalogs like National =
Parts Depot

If you have headers you may need something better for the heat

Subject: [Tigers] ? questions

=20

Looking for some information / advice (now that it is running again, =
looking to tidy up a few bits, etc.) which I hope someone can help me =
with.

=20

1) What size are the hoses which runs to & from the MKI (so S1-SIV =
Alpines too I think) heater valve (manifold -> valve -> heater core)?

My heater valve is leaking like a sieve and replacements appear to be =
scarce at the moment, so looking to bypass it until it can be rectified.

=20

2) I assume the distributor vacuum line is the standard 3/16"?
Mine is a bit short / tight, does not inspire confidence.

=20

3) What sort of hose is used in the fuel line around the transmission / =
engine area?
Mine is a bit mishappen, again does not inspire confidence.

=20

4) Any opinion on spark wire boots - 90 vs 135 degrees?

Looking at ordering a kit to make some up, need to make an all in =
choice.

=20

Cheers in advance,

=20
