lower radiator hose on 330ci
I try to give back when I can.
Lower radiator hoses on 330ci engines aren't being made (that I could find) and the flexible ones get eaten by the fan belt. My local NAPA guy prides himself on finding hoses that fit and here's a find. NAPA ECR 8100 fit's pretty darn perfect. You cut it off at the bend leaving as much hose as you can and stretch it just a bit. Other than that… just like factory.

I just recently replaced the lower on my '67 330. I have to do the w/p tomorrow. I will check to see if the sticker is still on it with part #. If so I will post.

Have a gates part # to the lower rad hose on a '67 330. Did need some minor trimming on rad side to prevent riding on inner frame rail. Part # is gates 20595. Nice fit.

Good research. Wish every parts man would take the initiative like that.
Ames Performance (Pontiac vendor) has had notes on parts for years "fit and function are correct", when they'd found a good substitute for something no longer made and not cost effective to reproduce. Makes me think I need to go buy up some replacement stock before Fusick discontinues more of their early 60s big car stuff.
