Radiator hose??

Got a new bottom radiator hose for the down flow radiator in my BE from Moss. Siamesed heater hose has an ID of 5/16" while my heater return pipe has an OD of 1/2". Hose section is very heavy walled and not stretchable. Have our parts sources really become this bad??

Anyway, does anyone know where I can get a decent bottom hose for the down flow rad???

If I have to I'll make up a welded section like on the older Brit cars that will let me use off the shelf straight hose.

Looks like no one knows where to get a decent hose. Silicone hoses were available a few years ago. Are they gone?

Well, SD, when it comes to computers...I can type and that is about it. How do you search the archive??

A quick E-bay search comes up with a kit of 6. Are those the ones you used??

Moss UK should have them as a set. I bought one last year. I am sure they carry it in the US as well...
