i'm trying to swap a 5.0 into a '65
ranchero and now the water pump inlet and the radiator outlet are on the driver's side. i'd like to use a molded hose here but nothing seems to fit. before i spend a whole day at NAPA trying to find something does anyone here have a part number or reference for a molded hose that can be made to fit.
thanks.

just a follow up to the cooling saga.
i ended up using a NAPA hose # 8685. don't know what it's supposed to fit and i had to trim both ends. it fits well and hasn't collapsed at high rpm.
thanks to all who offered advice and suggestions.
