Sorry guys, I KNOW this subject has been done before, but I sure Can't find any info on it. I'm putting together a 32 Ford, new Walker radiator, 350 small block, normal water pump. The engine is close to the radiator and I'm running an electric fan. Any good suggestions and part numbers on upper and lower hoses? Thanks BILL RINALDI
Upper hose Gates 20607 You have to cut a little off Lower hose Gates 20242 Use a spring from another cheap hose inside lower hose.
HRP---I know, I know, it ain't traditional---but that don't mean it won't work. Between the engine sitting a tad too low, and the availability of good working fan systems, I'm gonna go with the electric fan. Besides I've been jerking around with this project for 5 years, I gotta start making some real progress. So what do you use for the hoses on your truck, or your former 4 door, or even your new 2 door. You've been down 32 lane a few times but this is my go round with a deuce. BILL RINALDI
Sahcse Rod shop gets them through Oreilly's, but they come from Gates. http://www.sachserodshop.com/web_cooling systems.pdf
This will cure the low mounted engine issue. Do a search here on the HAMB ... lots of good info available __________________
