Terry, I think you would find it very difficult if not impossiblr to use PVC pipes. The pipes have numerous bends to route them t hrough the chassis crossmembers. I think you could do it with copper if you remove the old ones in one piece so you can duplicate the bends. I do not know if copper is compatible with the other metals in contact with the coolant solution. Perhaps a chemist on the list can address this issue. Good luck. Harry Patrick |
