I got this part today from GM and I wanted anyone who might need it to be able to check it out. I am not running heat so I will be using this to loop the heater ports on the water pump. I have not installed it yet, but will let you know how it goes.

Enjoy:

Cool, list price is only $9 for GM PN 10108509. Will go pick one up this weekend and that completes my cooling system

Thanks for the tip!!

(so, is one side's opening larger than the other?

That's a negative. I will go try to jam it on my water pump and see how it works.

Just did a test fit. Slides over the small side perfect. The big side is tight, but goes on. I think the only benefit from using this would be it is a molded "U" so it won't kink like a normal straight piece looped.

You rock man, I'm going to go and try and find that tomorrow!

I went and tried to find it today. Every store in my area said they had 1 in stock, and all of the counter people went to look for it and found jack sh*t.

So I bought a random hose from Advance, because they let me go behind the counter and look at houses. It was too large.

Does anyone have any clue what the heck part S-4354 is originally intended for, so I can find the equivalent at Advance? I have tried to crossreference but I'm having no luck.

I went to GM dealership to look at the part 10108509, but it was more J-shaped than U-shaped, so I opted against it. Went to Summit Racing and picked up all my braided hose to do the fuel lines instead

I don't know what 4354 is intended for but you might want to have them do a search for other Autozone's in the area and then you could all them and see if they have any in stock. I got lucky and the GM dealership had one in stock and Autozone had one in stock as well so I bought both. I'll go and take pictures of them later but I'll be returnig the GM one for the autozone one looks like it will fit better. I went to the dealership first and bought it just in case autozone didn't have any in stock.

I did. I had the guy at Autozone check all of the local stores. All but one of them were showing 1 in stock. Had him call three and ask them to pull the part - none could find it. At this point, there were about 10 people in line at the parts counter and he gave up.

Advance couldn't cross reference but NAPA could NAPA part number: NBH 10743

I'll try to pick it up tomorrow.

Sweet deal... 10 people waiting in line, that's funny. When I was there I didn't take up much of the guys time for he looked up the part number and then went and got the hose. There was still a bunch of people in line though, guess I picked the popular time to go to Autozone.

If that NBH 10743 works out could you post up pics of it? Also, does Napa have any idea what that hose is intended to be used on?

NBH 10743 is a perfect match up, but I need a single hose clamp to finish the install. It's also J-shaped hose, just chop it off to make a "U" and it's literally bolt-up perfect like it was meant to be, just like the S-4354 part that AutoZone has. I just prefer to buy from my guys at NAPA, they never do me wrong and there's no wait like A-Zone
