Re: lower bbc rad hose with camaro clip?

There is no possible way somone can come up with the exact hose that fits your truck perfectly because there are too many variables.

Those include:
How high or low the subframe was set on the frame.
how high or low the engine was set on the subframe.
What style radiator you used and does it's outlet match normal big block hoses.
The distance the radiator is from the waterpump outlet.

The best I can suggest is that if you have some old lower and maybe upper hoses laying around do the cut and ducttape thing to make up a hose that has the shape you need and then carry that hose to the parts house and do some hunting.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
