Forgot about this thread- guess I should update.
So-Cal Speed Shop sells a Gates hose for the bottom. I got the number & bought it else where.
Bottom hose is the same Gates #20242 but comes with no internal spring. I robbed a spring from another hose I had laying around.
The bottom hose needs a 1 3/4 x 1 1/2 bushing at the water pump. Part is Gates #26391
Fits perfect w/ a little trim.
Upper hose, So-Cal sells the upper also but for a straight water neck. That number is a Gates #20380 but I decided to use my angled water neck because of my MoonEyes oval air cleaner. The straight one wouldn't clear- plus I have a passenger side inboard alternator to route around too.
Angled swivel base neck & a Gates #20607 w/ a bunch of trimming to fit. Perfect fit.
Hope this info helps someone else someday.
