Default Braided radiator hoses/sizes
Hi All, I'm about to replace all the black ruber hoses and lines in my Backdraft to braided stainless items with AN type fittings or "AN look alike Magna Clamps".
I would like to order the radiator hoses and have them here before pulling off the stock ones so the car has as little down time as possible.
Can any of you owners please tell me the inlet and outlet sizes of the stock hoses on the car? The upper is 1 1/2" at the manifold water neck end But what size is it at the stailess steel pipe end?
The lower is 1 3/4 at the water pump end but what is the radiator end size? Would love to confirm these so I can order the hoses and have them here when my new Backdraft #814 arrives from shipping next Monday (6-21).
Also: the lengths would be great if known!
Thanks! Don
