I do have one caveat : I had a bit of a run of radiator hose failures that
might possibly be related to the increased pressure. I think they were
probably due to other factors (eg bad motor mounts, radiator shop forcing
hose off and on without removing Tstat housing, etc) but I don't know for
sure. I'm currently trying out one of the "heavy duty" upper hoses from
Gates, rather than the previous cloth-covered reproductions of the original
hose.
