I live in a small area and not much is kept on local shelves.

I found the 18777 gates number for the heater core hose loop.

Looking for ideas on the lower and upper hoses, and part numbers if you have them. I've got a 07 and up trucks waterpump. And griffin ls swap radiator both inlet and outlet are on pass side.

Thanks for the help.

Hopefully someone will chime in with numbers but my suggestion is to bend up a coat hanger and take that into the parts store. Ask the guys to allow you to look through the hoses in the back and see what you find.

That's how I knocked mine out.

That's my issue. My local guys don't carry much. I was gunna make a ruff pvc template.

Let's just say this. It's over a hour in any direction to hit a Walmart or mcdonalds. So yeah I'm in bfe

I'm running that same radiator in my car I used the stock Fbody lower hose Dayco 71982 and the stock Fbody upper hose Dayco 71981 but I have the car pump so this hose probably wont work with your truck pump but you might be able to get 2 of them and cut and piece them together to make one hose. I know the Dayco 71982 will work with your pump as it has the same thermostat housing as a car pump.

Thanks for the tip on the lower hoses. I actually ordered a gates 20450 to try off amazon. If it doesn't work I'll order the one you posted up.

Yeah not many folks run the pump I have, but it's alot cleaner that the early truck pump and I didn't want to run a car pump with spacers.

I have an electronic catalog of Gates hoses that you can search by end sizes and overall length. it also shows a picture of each so you can see the relative shape. Not sure how to post it here, but if you PM me your email, I can send it. it is 7Meg file.

And a Gates 20450 might get you on the bottom hose. I usually type in "LS radiator hose" on google and look through all the pics.

That's exactly what I d8d haha Google ls swap mustang hoses. That's where I got the loop number and lower hose number.

Man if you findi that top part # for yours it would be awesome. Everyone I know runs a car pump or is cheap and just dents the early truck neck.

You're in luck! I had the p/n written on my board in the shop. Dayco 71993

Heck yeah, thanks man. The 20450 hose comes in today. See how it fits tonight.

Sleeperls

20450 is about a 2 inches too short. Send it back Monday.

Hopefully one of the local places has a f body lower in hand

Well dang. Sorry about the bottom hose...

Sleeperls

The dayco number 408gt is using is half inch on both sides. The outlets are 1 1/4. I get to go to a bigger town today and took it with me. Walked into a O'Reilly and they let me dig around.

I purchased a gates 22341 and it's tight. It's actually just under 1 1/4. Cut some off of it and it's going to work nicely for me. The one 408gt suggested would be perfect if it was smaller diameter hose.

I'll take some pics tonight.

The stock lower ls1 hose works but once again is 1 1/2 on the thermostat size and 1 1/4 on the radiator side. The griffin ls swap radiator is 1 1/2 on the bottom. I was able to squeeze it over, but the life of the hose will prob greatly be diminished, we will see. Pics to come tonight
