Few questions.
1 If I keep the 22" radiator where can I find a smooth upper rad hose. I can not stand the ribbed one. Hometown NAPA and Autozone cant help me.
2 Should I ditch the 22" and go with 26" and if so, what will bolt right in?

FYI cooling a 360 for street use.

Do you have the same setup I currently have? 22" with upper on Passenger side?
 
No I have a 360 with the hose on the drivers side. What year had the hose on that side? Is that a a-body radiator?
 
I believe that is a Slant Six Radiator. Try a Slant Six Upper Hose and see how that works for ya!

One of the formed hoses on this Autozone page may well work for you (such as L-125). They're all for small blocks:

Look for A/C applications. There's no reason you can't use the 22" rad with that 360. I'm using a 3 row 22" unit for my 440. Upper hose is in the same position. I used a formed upper hose for a big-block B or C body application and had to shorten the hose.
 

Not sure what year. I know slant six hose comes straight out and is much shorter.

The 22" Radiator is the biggest factory Radiator you can fit without cutting the Radiator opening.
Stick with the 22" with a shroud, youll be fine.
