Any good parts store should be able to match a new hose to the old one. Just take it to the parts store and have them eyeball compare to what they have in stock.
Not around here unfortunately. Once the "sales associate" types in the model year of vehicle and doesn't see your motor on the computer screen, they look at you like you have 2 heads and flippers.

I used a set of hoses from a '70 Barracuda (383). Had to trim them a little bit but they fit pretty well.

Cant find an upper hose anywhere. The existing hose looks to have been cut to fit. 440 motor in a 72 Duster, aluminum rad with neck on passenger side.
Existing hose is a gates, numbers are 76EX50, C07 11 6, D246. These numbers wouldn't pull up any matches at the local parts shop (Canada)
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Just today I bought an upper hose from NAPA for my BB engine in an A body with the rad neck on the passenger side, just like yours. Part # is 7196. I'll forward a picture in another post.

Ask A local Napa for a Gates non rigid flex style hose. You just need to tell them the hose diameter required. I used one in my 74 a body b block with the top hose on the passenger side

Another angle. If you don't have NAPA stores in Canada they should be able to cross reference the part number.
Looks good. We have NAPA stores so I'll try today. Whats the brand you have in the pic? Gates?

That would do nicely too. The only flex the guy could show me was straight run and could make the sharp bend out of the water pump. I'll see if they can find this type. Thanks!

The only name I see on the hose is BOMH. But the part number should get you the correct hose. Actually this hose is for a 1964 BB Mopar without A/C but fits perfect.
