Radiator hoses for Early Truck 5.7 swap

68cuda408 said

I use the same cover with a similar Be Cool radiator (same one I used for the 408). I fabbed my own intake tube and use bendable metal tubing top and bottom. I did have to get a reducer hose for the large water pump inlet.

I have been thinking of going the flexible house route. Whose product did you use? I checked out some of the options on the summit website, and a lot of them say it looks nice but does not perform well in terms of longevity/durability, especially in regards to the adapters and clamps. What has your experience been like?
