Hose Size and Type

[Paul S.]

The hose that goes from the overflow tank to the top of the radiator on my 67 327 needs replacing. What size and type of hose should I use?

Thanks.

Thanks, but I was not looking for a source to buy online and my 67 is just a nice driver so I'm not looking for something authentic for judging purposes. I was wanting to know what to buy at my local auto parts store. Is this just heater hose and does someone know the diameter?

My recollection is that it 3/8" ID. If you can find heater hose that small, use it. However, I don't think you will. In the past I've used rubber fuel line and never had a bit of trouble with it.

Thanks. The buy online route was killing me (the shipping costs are about as much as the hose & there's no other parts I need anytime soon, as this Spring I've ordered a ton of stuff from Long Island Corvette, CSSB Inc., Wilcox and others).
