Message	GROUND down while you try to get it on. Comon -- you guys all know the hoses are tough to get on -- you've heard it a thousand times. They go on so tight you could almost go without clamps ;) Not saying there is a better alternative, but if they could mill the diameter down just a smidge, it would be nice. They only need to be as tight as the other hardline galleries in the car, and we know getting hoses on those lines is not NEARLY the task. -Dave VISIT thumper300zx.com for PICS and TECH PAGES
