Hey...Can anyone tell me what hoses I need for my small block Chevy engine swap I did on my 40 Chev 1/2 ton? I have a short water pump and a new Walker radiator made for a 40 Chev. I'm hoping there is a hose made for something else that can be cut and used for this application. I've been looking and have found some that are close for the top, but nothing for the nasty curve on the lower hose. Thanks!!!!!

You'll either have to find something close by bending a piece of wire to shape and comparing it against the hoses in the parts store, or get one of those "universal" types that look like bendy straws.

I know, I don't like the looks of them either. But I'll bet there's a hose out there with the right bend, that might just need to be cut down to size.

On my 46 with a 350 and walker and long water pump. I used a universal like Boyoconnor described. It was a gates 26603. It's a tight bend but worked.
