MGB Lower radiator hose

[Celtic 77]

I may have asked this sometime back but my faded memory...Oh well. I have a 77B, in an effort to reroute the heater return hose through an older copper line near the valve cover, thereby eliminating the old ZS carb choke line, will the earlier (mid-70's) lower hose with the longer hot water return fit. Yes or no?

I'm not completely sure on that one if you're using the premade hose with the "Y" already formed into it. I always used the metal elbow with the outlet for the heater hose (if you have a Moss catalog its part # 470-040 along with 473-080). That way I can just use whatever hose peices are available from the local auto parts store.

I've given that a look too. I guess I'll just have to bite the bullet and do the Moss or Northwest thing... Thanks...
