Radiator Hoses (October 9 - 10, 2013)


Uppers - Gates 22345, Dayco 71858 (90 degree portion)
Lower - Gates 20294 

Steam Line - Gates 28407 (sold by the foot)
Clamps - Gates "PowerGrip"

Before you go and buy any of these hoses keep in mind my combination, which is the Entropy radiator and the Stewart water pump (that comes with the Vintage Air Front Runner).

This is the lower. It only required minor trimming.
  
   

I used wire templates, which I took to the auto parts store.






The upper is made up of two hoses joined together using an aluminum tube.

Steam line at the driver's side head.





At the radiator. The Entropy radiator comes with a 1/4" FPT bung for this connection.
