Radiator hoses
Hi everyone - am building a '46 ford/sb 350 chevy - and need to locate radiator hoses - do I go to a parts store with a pattern and try to match them or is there a place to have them custom made, or are there universal flexable after market products available. Thanks in advance, Bill

Same here, i just take old hoses and cut them and then tape them toghether to get the shape i need ,then go to the parts store and find one that matches, or you can do like pat says and make one out of pipe
well I decided to do another mod to gain max travel of bars past the intended travel points just for that peace of mind. 1/8 inch is to close so now I'll have 1/2" or better. I cut a 3/16" wall...
