A big shout out to Bob Boig. I’ve lusted after his cool tubes since I finished my build, (2018) I never liked the look of the corrugated stainless hoses. And the filler neck wasn’t the high point of the cooling system. Problems solved, and these things are like jewelry for your engine bay. If you’re in the middle of your build,or just starting, make some room in your budget for these babies .

They are really sweet, I never liked that corrogated piping either. Just looks like a problem waiting to happen.

I'm curious: why not a puke tank instead?

There is an expansion tank.

Awesome products that work equally well. Never planned to use the corrugated tube. That being said, if anyone wants some. All it costs is the freight.

I went from these upper and lower rad hoses:

I switched to the Boig's tubes as well. The corrugated tube just never had a proper finished looked to me. They looked like some kind of universal "parts store" cheapy fix.

A little buffing on the Boig aluminum lends a nice detailed touch.
