Looking for an upper radiator hose for my 66 belvedere. It has a 1973 360 motor and the radiator hose connects on the drivers side of the radiator. The following #'s are on the existing hose:
EBP 80MH46 and 09A22YRS made in usa. Also the #2115 is there. I've done quite a few searches with no luck! Thought about replacing it with a stainless flex hose, but never had any experience, good or bad, to know if they're worth the money. Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Mike

Stainless flex hoses made by RPC work okay.

Thanks Bremereric.....I would like to stick to the hose that's on here now, but if I can't get eny leads, I just might have to do that.

Ain't got a clue. How about putting it back on the car and take a couple good pics. My 68 Dart might have used the same house.

I'll try to do that tonight and get some pics.

Sorry but I still have a clue. That is a wierd location for the top hose on that radiator. Have you tried the guys at Napa or O'Reillys they could take it to the back and try to match it up for ya.

Here's a Gates hose for a 1968 Dodge Dart with no A/C...looks close



It would not rise up as high as the one you have which looks like it bends up too high.

tried a couple of auto parts places and they couldn't find anything that was close enough. I'll give the dart hose a shot if I can find it.

Thanks again.

olibass1

is that gates hose in the picture for your Dart p# 20594?

bremereric

Yep

bremereric

Any updates on your hose delima?

olibass1

Sorry for the late response.....I ended going with the stainless flex hose and it's working nicely so far. Thanks for all of the help!

Alright.
