67 Camaro LS3 radiator hose fitment help
Hi, I know a some of you have been through this already so I thought I would ask and maybe save myself a lot of time. I have a 67 Camaro that I have installed a LS3 both coolant inlet and outlet are on the passenger side. I purchased an Afco direct fit radiator and the inlet and outlet are on the passenger side, its similar to a Griffin Radiator. I was wondering if someone may have a similar set up and maybe have part numbers for the upper and lower hose that would fit. I thought I would give this a try and save a lot of trial and error Thanks.

So yes that helps big time. I just bought the "Jags That Run" radiator hose splices in 1 1/4" and 1 1/2" in case if have to do any finagling of the hoses to make them fit.

I have close to the same setup. LS3 clone(L92 base) into a 1965 Buick Skylark with the dual pass radiator. With the LS3 water pump I will have to come back under the cold air intake and up to the radiator inlet. Did you do the same thing? If so any problems. Also I see the Dayco 71636 is 1 5/16" in diameter. I assume it went on without any problems as I think 1 1/4" is the nominal size for the water pump and radiator hose fittings?

To answer your routing question, i'm going to need a pic or i'm going to have to find one of the LS3 pump. I may have told you guys something wrong, if the pumps are different. If so, sorry. Looks like you must have the pump with the upper hose on the driverside. Mine is on the passenger.

Yes the LS3 water pump is on the drivers side. The lower one should be the same though.

That is why I bought the radiator hose splice pieces in case I have to use two hoses to make it work.
