The earlier post about an SU conversion got me thinking about what to do with the water choke hoses on the ZS when I swap my carb over. Do I need the Moss part number 363-200 -heater to radiator hose pipe? Is there anything else needed for this particular part of the conversion? I have been doing my homework and I think I have everything else accounted for but I missed this.

hose pipe


As always, the info is much appreciated.

You will need to do some plumbing work. You will need to route from the T piece on the bottom hose back to the radiator to make the equivalent of the pipe that runs along the valve cover on the earlier cars.

For the water choke connection from the back of the head to the ZS you'll need to block this off. I haven't done this but believe you can get a blanking plate to fit under that connection from the head. It's probably on Moss somewhere or I know it's been mentioned in prior threads here somewhere. You may need to do some searching to verify.

I think you're meaning #19 on the part list and I *think* that's the one you already would have for a stock 79.

Probably a good idea but I have seen owners use copper tubing of the same diameter and make their own.
