I read it the other day when you posted it...
but I dont have a recommendation that will fit...
the only off the shelf hose I've found worked on the top hose on my C30...all the others I've done are 2pc hoses...I make a template and go hose hunting at the parts store..

Yeah because of my age and this bug running around I am staying home and trying to order stuff off the Internet which has been very difficult I got one of those universal flexible hoses for the upper one and used a reducer at the water pump Which I do not like but it’s workable after this is all over with I can go to a part store and dig through their inventory

I'd help but I don't know what 6.0 out of a Camaro is.

Is it a LS 3?

I don't think that rad will work. What size are the upper and lower outlets?

The radiator is an 1 3/4 both outlets the engine is an 1 1/2 barely The upper outlet on the Camaro motor is in a different location than the truck I know other people have use this combination and I have seen other posts over the years about it but at that time wasn’t what I was working on and didn’t pay attention
