Upper Radiator Hose
Looking to see what others have done.
Truck 1949 3800 Engine swap from 216 to 261 I have found the perfect lower radiator hose but from what I am finding on the webs and Jim Carters site I am not finding an upper radiator hose that follows gets me from the thermostat housing to the radiator. With this conversion the Thermostat housing is larger than the Radiator inlet. I understand that a larger hose is used and double up at the radiator. I tried a 1962 hose, same year as the motor but due to the angles it kinks. Even when I trim the hose down. it is the kink back to the Thermostat housing. So what have others done here? Any part number would help of what you had used. Last edited by mytruck1949; 07-18-2018 at 07:34 AM. Reason: added info and pic |
