Correct Vacuum Hose

[Brian V.]

I have a 1972 No-AC, base 350/200hp/4-speed coupe.
I'm looking to replace the vacuum hose that connects the manifold fitting to the vacuum filter and then to the vacuum check valve,
I'm trying to source only that section of the vacuum system, yet all I am finding are complete vacuum hose kits for my year/model.
Can anyone tell me the original/correct hose diameter for that section, and where I might find the correct style hose for this application?

Any info is appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: Correct Vacuum Hose

The original hose going from the manifold fitting to the filter and from the filter to the check valve on the 72 that is being stored in my shop measures .4675" (using a cheap Harbor Freight digital caliper) or really 1/2" OD. There is a single raised rib on one side and a series of multiple raised ribs on the other. Hope this helps.

I would call DR REBUILD first. Then perhaps David S and David Crane in California. Maybe also use a WTB ad in Driveline.
