One inch Pipe or one inch AN hose? There is a large difference.
One inch hose is one inch but one inch Pipe<[tube] is really about
1 3/8 inch with close to twice the area and flow.
IMHO one inch hose is a bit marginal. I am going to use Wiggins
couplings like Bill Schertz and Continental uses on their liquid cooled
engines with 1 3/8 OD tubing.

By the way, 1-1/4" Aluminum Tubing just fits in the water pump inlet, and can
then be welded to the casting. That is what makes the transition from the ~25
degree angle to the vertical on my set up. All the rest is 1-3/8" tube.
