Camaro/corvette waterpump to stock 73-87 upper radiator hose
Is there a stock off the shelf upper radiator hose that will work without splicing 2 hoses? Im not concerned with trimming to fit, just rather not buy 2 hoses and spice if possible. I also dont want the universal hose on the truck either. The truck type waterpump upper hose is simple, but isn't an option and everyone's uncle knows a stock truck upper rad hose fits just fine.
Thanks

Re: Camaro/corvette waterpump to stock 73-87 upper radiator hose
I too had the same problem as you . I wound up bending a cloths hanger to the shape I needed and went thru nearly every hose at my local parts store . I did find one to work for me . I did have to use a rubber reducer on the water pump . Most things that worked was too big for the pump . In the end it worked out good . I too have the corvette acc .
Unfortunately this would not help you because I put it in a 67 camaro and the lenght would be different . But it is an option to find one at the local part store like I had to . My parts store was pretty accommodating . I hope someone has found one with a part number . I do plan on doing the same thing in the future and can use the info as well . |
