It all depends on the pipe diameter. The system pressure will be limited by the header tank cap and these as we know can be faulty! Hot coolant is very dangerous so be very careful. A leak in the cabin at motorway speed frightens me!

Couple of threads here below which may help?
https://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/for...ead.php?t=7515 https://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/for...d.php?t=236157 I am almost sure there is another clamp on these matrix pipes in the foot well, a W clamp i think which allows some movement of the pipes so they can be joined properly?
