SBC lower radiator hose with aluminum radiator (1 Viewer)

[atchonda]

Does anyone have a part # for a lower radiator hose that will fit the water pump on a 350 SBC, & a griffin aluminum radiator in a 1976 FJ40? The hoses in tech trivia fit the stock cruiser radiator, but it has a 1-1/2 " opening on the radiator, the griffin has a 1-3/4" opening on the radiator, water pump opening is 1-3/4" also. I don't want to use a flex hose, they seem to put too much of a bind on the radiator connection. I have searched, & found lots of threads on aluminum radiator install, but could not find any hose part #'s.

easiest thing to do is bend a hanger to the style that will fit then go to your parts store and they should let you rummage through their stock to find one that best matches. no biggie

Advance Auto "Drive Rite" D70558. 1 3/4" in/out

I was told this crosses to a Gates 3892628 but do not have first-hand exp with this one.

I do not have an exact application on this, sorry. But I do have this on my truck and it fits perfectly.

It takes a little trimming. see this link:

Thanks for the information, from the drawing, looks just like the one I need. I will locate one, & give it a try. Seems like I have to trim everything I put on this thing anyway, part of the fun is making things work.

the gates 20537 works with the Ron Davis, 28" core, not sure about the griffin but it's worth a try
