Default The Cool Hose

In the Summit Catalog, p.63, upper left corner.

Thinking about SUM-390024 and SUM-390005. Will this work on the upper radiator hose on my 72?

Is it smooth on the inside or not, since it's ribbed on the outside?

I believe they are ribbed on the inside also.

Some do not like this - turbulence leading to air in system.

Comments?

I have one on my 82 - got about 1/2 price on ebay. No problems all last summer with air in system.

I do not belive that the "ribbed" inside would create any kind of trouble.I`m going to order those once my "project" hits that stage..They shurely look :cool: :cheers:

Do I have the right part numbers?

You can buy them all the time off ebay for $39 (24") without bidding. Not Cool Flex, but an exact look alike. Did that. They are very stout, chromed, flexible steel tubing.
