    Default Original style heater hoses

    I need to replace the heater hose on a 79 pace car. I have the original factory hoses right now and the hose from the intake fitting appears to have a molded in elbow. And the hose from the water pump fitting to the heater core appears to have a short molded hose with a splice going into common style heater hose. It all has the original style "tower" hose clamps so I'm fairly certain it's an all original setup.
    So does anyone make the correct molded hoses. I found Gates numbers but no pics to verify correctness.

    The svo has some molded hoses with elbows, you might want the check them. Also do a google search using gates and the number to see what pictures come up.

    Can you share a couple of pictures of the originals? Our 79 302 does not have originals on it so when I get to replacing I'd like to know what I am looking for too.

    If you find a decent replacement can you let us know? I'll be in the same boat as you soon.
