Default 1968 Firebird

need to replace my power steering pressure line hose, it requires a hose with an 180 degree inlet to the pump and has to fit between the block and the pump, I am not finding any vendors who have the 180 degree bend only a 90 degree - I have check with summit, classic firebird, delco and all the local parts stores, does anyone have a suggestion where to find one? thank you in advance for any feedback.

You can always try Jim O'Clair''s column in Hemmings if still looking. He has an amazing way of finding parts.

Is this for a L6 or V8? All of the V8 hoses I've found have a 90-deg bend, but some of the L6 applications appear to have a 180-deg bend.

Will a 90-deg hose not work?
