From the link I posted in the other thread

*No hose ends available for hose sizes 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 14, 18, 28, & 32. These are to be used with Earl's ECON–O–FIT or hose clamps only

Seems to me like a void in the market.

If I made these, do you think there are enough buyers for it?

I could use some clarification from folks that are familiar with Gil exhaust. I have a set of Gils that I run with a freshwater full system. I have blocked off the small hose to the riser as it is coming from the manifold that has fresh water circulating. I noticed that, even before the full system was installed, the risers would get hot and you would not want to get too close or you would be a warm arm. What is the recommendation for the small hose if you have a full system freshwater cooling. I could not come up with a better plan and could use some suggestions. Thanks

Ditto. Those are the fittings in my 525SC pic above.
