Default Another A-body upper radiator hose tip

I'm still getting the finishing stuff done on my 72 skylark and thought this might help someone else. So If any of you guys are like me and are running a LS swap griffin aluminum style radiator with the upper neck on the passenger side and running a LM7 or other truck waterpump and drive system, and your looking for a nice upper radiator hose. I found one that fits pretty dang nice after cutting off the last bend on the one end. The hose's original application is 01-10 ford ranger and mazda B2300 pickup lower hose. Dayco# 72189

Great tip. Now go get some of those Gates heat shrink hose clamps for a really clean look! :-)
