Clutch Flexi Hose

As title, need a clutch flexi in good shape for a Type 85/B2 90q

Or I would consider a whole gearbox if it's sensibly priced, the slave cylinder and flexi are in good shape and it's somewhere in the midlands

I've been weighing up getting these made with good stainless ends and hosing. Probably cheaper than OE and less prone to damage and aging as well as better pressure figures.

I only need one because I cut it removing the old engine, on the assumption I could just pick up a new one. So at the mo I have 2 ends of the 100 year old one joined with a piece of flared brake pipe and a load of jubilee clips, which surprisingly worked, it just hasn't retained fluid for as long as I would have liked

I'm f*cked if I'm paying £80 for one!

There is a braided one on e-bay for £30.
