Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-VIP-96RD is a red silicone radiator hose kit engineered specifically to replace the OEM rubber coolant hoses on the Dodge Viper. Built from high-grade silicone reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers, this kit is rated to withstand temperatures up to 330°F, giving it a real edge over aging factory rubber hoses that harden and crack over time.
As part of the Mishimoto Cooling lineup, this performance-grade hose kit is designed as a direct, specific-fit replacement rather than a universal solution, meaning it retains OEM fitment while boosting pressure tolerance for a more durable cooling system. The silicone construction helps efficiently manage engine heat, and because these hoses are built to OEM dimensions, installation is straightforward without the need for custom fabrication or trimming. Whether you’re refreshing a tired cooling system or upgrading ahead of spirited driving, this kit is a targeted solution for Viper owners who want a longer-lasting alternative to stock rubber hoses.
