Radiator hoses - LSX 1st Gen.

[boostin05blacksti]

Alright guys Im wrapping up the little things and this is a big one on the list. I read that these hoses would work for my setup and the upper hose fits perfect. The lower on the other hand would fit if it was another 2 inchs longer. Im looking for another lower hose im guessing. What is everyone else running? This is a 67 camaro with stock subframe,Entropy radiator for an lsx swap in a first gen, stock height solid mounts, S&P adapter plates, 327 engine stands. Here are the part number that I have currently...

This is my upper hose - Dayco 71620

I had a similar problem finding hoses that fit. I eventually went down to Napa Auto Parts with a pre-bent piece of wire. I found a Napa hose #7868 for the upper and #7196 for the lower. You will need to cut the hoses down, but a section of both these hoses work for the application. What I like about using a stock numbered hose, is that it's available at most stores. Just keep the numbers for future reference.
