So, I bought what was supposed to be the right upper radiator hose for my new motor several years ago (forgot where I got it) and put on the motor after installing it. I first was using a 14" chrome air cleaner and when I went to install the original cold air GS air cleaner, it wouldn't fit with this hose. The driver's side air inlet rests against the radiator hose. So, what's the correct radiator hose for a 71-72 GS and where's the best place to get it? My fan shroud also doesn't have a hole for the plastic clamp that holds the hose from bending into the fan. Did the '71s have this clamp and where is this plastic clamp available at?
I know for 69 and I think 70 Gates 20980 is the correct bend. I have the hook on my 69 and the hose cradles perfectly in it and clears the driver's side snorkel.
Good looking engine bay. I believe the 69/70 hose is different because of the hook on the shroud. However, the 71/72 hose ran over the shroud the a plastic clamp was attached to the top of the shroud. That's the one I need as I don't have the boss on my shroud to attach the '69/70 hook. Anyone know the p/n for the 71/72 hose and plastic clamp?
