thanks for all the help, I got a new top hose today, the bottom hose seems to be hard to find for a truck with out power steering, I have the one peace hose and everyone has a two piece hose set. on my bottom hose there is alot of bends in the hose and it is soft should there be a stiffness spring inside the hose?
I also ran the hose through the new rad and it flows great and the block flows nice also, what about a fan cluch slipping at high speeds?
