I'm going to put hot water heat in my A. I can run regular heater hose, but I think I could do it neater by using PEX type tubing. Is there any heating or plumbing experienced people on the forum who may have an opinion as to if PEX would hold up to that type of installation. I know it will take the glycol Ok wondering about the heat and vibration. Thanks in advance
 
Your max temp would only be 212 deg max, so that is not a problem. What’s wrong with black heater hose? Probably look better.
On your heater mounting, be sure not to make it hard to work on your car. Don’t block the floor boards. You may have to remove them on the road. Not much room in there. Good luck and stay warm.
