Maybe a stupid question - but until I get enough parts catalogs mailed in - where do you find the blue rad hoses (or kits) and blue ford racing wires for a '65 I6 engine?? The only ones I see are for V-8's. Maybe they don't exist.

I have to replace a few things pretty quick (plus x-mas is coming) and want to buy the right stuff when I need it. I know you can get the custom lenth plug wires in any colour but I kinda like the Ford motorsport ones. Thanks!!

the wires won't be problem at all, just get a universal set and make them yourself. Its very easy to do and they'll fit better(if done right) than the pre-made ones ever do. As for the blue hoses, I've never seen 'em for anything other than a 5.0 fox body. I'd pass on 'em anyway, neon blue radiator hoses don't exactly fit the theme of a 40 year old car IMO. Good clean factory hoses look the best to me, if you like the shiney stuff you should check into the "Cool Flex" hoses, they look pretty sharp and quality is supposed to be good.

Haven't seen them in person - so you could be right on the 'bling factor' of those blue hoses.

My theme for now is basically the high school hot rod that I never had - plus it is a good money-wise theme to use anyway while the kids are still young.

Low budget = lots of fun.

I like the look of the factory rad hoses/ heater hoses but have only seen basic black at the local parts. Where do you get the ones with all the factory printing on them??
