I am thinking I will go with the silicone also. Heck, people swap OEM hoses for silicone radiator hoses on these cars

Which hose would that be? 87245-1B262? Is that the one that goes from that wrap around hard pipe to the firewall? If not I need to know which one so I can replace it before I install my engine.
i had that problem once
Replaced the hose, and put heat shield sleeving on both of them that I got out of the summit cataloge

i have replaced mine with a 90deg hose that didn't reduce to the smaller diameter and it doesn't seal well because of it.
with the silicone has any one found one that has the right diameters?
did you all just crank down on it?

Err... that looks like something other than a 7M, which is the engine with the problem... Now, if you have some magical method of mounting the JZ part on a 7M, we'd be all over it, however, that's not going to happen.7EMPIRE;1561605 said:

ummm that's a JZ hardpipe isn't it?

AFAIK any silicone hose with a 3/4" inner diameter will work as long as its at a right angle...some links were posted earlier. 3/4" ID on a silicone hose is the same as a 3/4" ID on a rubber hose.
i love how there are some people on here that are so eager to TRY and make someone feel stupid.i posted this jus to show that toyota must have had some knowledge that the rubber hose was a horrible idea.
thanks to the people like nick88 that read this and knew what i said before trying to be a smartass

Sorry dude, reading your post I thought you were suggesting we should upgrade to the JZ equipment.

And then there are those member where it's no effort at all to make them look stupid as they do such a good job on their own
I changed one of those once. One of my old 7MGE's, a dark blue 87. I don't remember it being difficult. I probably just pulled the distributor out of the way and had room to work.
