Is there a maximum length for coolant hoses!!!

[fullpint]

Having no heat what so ever in my Mk Indy I was thinking about running my coolant hoses thru into the cockpit???
Was thinking about running an extended length of hose into the tunnel over the top and round to the passanger side and then back to the rad!
What do you think? Just to get a little heat to warm the old hands up when out on a drive

I dont see any problem with longer hoses, why not try a micro heater too. Ask for a BKCC discount

To me longer hoses = larger volume of coolant in the system + less chance of cooling problems for the engine.

I've always put a heater in my cars for precisely both reasons heat for me if I want it and a cooler running engine.
