LS1/Vortec radiator hoses

Hello,

I am trying to find radiator hoses to fit the 5.3L Vortec I swapped into my Jeep CJ8. I spend about 2 hours at Napa, but could not find any that can close enough to work. Any ideas besides flex hose?

Thanks

ramchargers has a stainless and chrome flex hose that you can use different sizes ends for. I know you arent looking for flex hoses but that may be the best way to go.. They look good too.

have any pics of where to where?

i can try to visualize it and give ya some pointers...

worse case, you can always get two or three hoses, cut out the specific bends/sections you need, and connect them with metal tubing... done right, it comes out really slick looking... (but obviously not stock) depends on what you're looking for....
