Engine rebuilt, replace coolant hoses?
I just had my engine rebuilt and I was highly recommended to replace my coolant hoses. Is there a place were I can buy all of them as a kit/set besides the dealer. I know one of them is like $168(from the dealer) which I hope to salvage and rebuild or something.

If they aren't cracked or show signes of buldging then I wouldn't worry about it.

Pretty much an automatic after a build.A 10.00 hose could ruin a 10,000.00 engine.

Go for the Hi-Miler. I love mine and that is one less thing to worry about.
