Source for radiator hoses

[RockinRobin]

Gen3 5.7 hemi in an A body:
I have a radiator for a big block that has been rodded out and both inlet and outlet are on the pass. side. Now I need to come up with radiator hoses that will connect to the gen 3 hemi water pump. Does anyone have a resource for figuring out radiator hose part #'s, or do you have numbers that worked for you?
Thanks!

These are what I'm using on my 6.1 Hemi. Not sure if that will help you or not.

I just went to my NAPA store and got a few that looked close and returned all the ones that didnt work.

the lower looks good . but upper I don't think so with a factory water neck.
any one have a part # they have used for a stock upper water neck 1"5/8 to pass upper rad inlet? 1 1/4"

I was thinking about picking up a pair of these (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-390024/overview/) for my car. Maybe something like that would work for you.

I wound up getting a lower hose for a 2012 Challenger from Mopar that worked and cost $30. I was really surprised at the cost because this hose goes from passenger to drivers side.

I'm using a Wizard Cooling rad with a 1-5/8" lower and 1-1/2" upper connection in a '69 Barracuda. I modified the rad support to open it up for a 26" rad.
I'm also using this 1-1/2" thermostat adapter that came with the accessory drive kit.

Nice! I especially like the thermostat housing. It looks like you can rotate it to whatever angle you want.

So here are the part numbers for the hoses I used. One thing I did was use a 440 thermostat and thermostat housing. I used the gasket from the 5.7 thermostat ( round rubber gasket ) fits the 440 thermostat. I used a champion radiator, both spouts on passenger side.
Lower hose is a Dayco Part number 70115, or 71593. Bought two, can't remember what I used.

Upper hose is a Dayco Part Number: C71723 Both hoses went on with minor trimming
