I think youll need to buy it from a supplier, because mine came with a certificate to say it was ok for brake fluid

Mine are Fiat Seicento hoses.
A couple of pictures in my archive of marked hoses. The longer one is p/n 46774776, 290mm long, and the other is p/n 46774775, 220mm long. Total cost
£8.48 inc vat (5 years ago).
If I had known I would have just bought 2 of the shorter ones, they are just the right length.

Think Automotive sell the correct hose.

Get the blue braided hose from Merlin motorsport, they will also send you the print out of spec for SVA/IVA.

hi steve, apparently something in brake fluid will eat through fuel resistant hose and you wont pass IVA with it

Hello Craig
- I'm glad I found out before I filled the system up with brake fluid. I have got two pipes (ex british leyland Marina clutch master to slave
cylinder hose - marked up lockheed - clutch). I think they will be better?
Hows your build going?

bought mine at a show a couple of years ago and never got the letter - now can't remember who i bought it off to ask for the letter. Suspect it
was CBS. Can anyone send me a copy of the letter if i double check the codes on the pipe?
