lower radiator hose

Rex Thonen · 12-20-2009, 05:48 PM

I need a radiator hose with 1 3/4" ID on both ends with a right angle bend in the middle. I put a new waterpump on my bb camaro, the water pump has a 1 3/4 outlet, the radiator has 1 3/4 inlet. The hose needs to be about 20" long. Any ideas ?
Thanks Rex

step up/step down reducers and two different radiator hoses? Stainless steel exhaust step ups/ step downs. Make a 2 piece radiator hose? Use good quality clamps.

Check your local auto parts store and see if they carry universal flexible hoses.

Gates makes "shims" with a flange to reduce hose size. I good parts guy will find them for you.

-AN adapter on radiator, AN fitting on Water Pump and use an AN hose.
