Neil T.77 P30 lower radiator hose
Hello, I am replacing the radiator hoses on my 77 P30 454. I have not had any luck finding the lower radiator hose. Does anyone have a part number for the correct hose or one that would work?
Neil.

Neil T.Thanks,
Do you know if that is a fitted hose like the original or a universal flexible hose? So far all I come up with is the flexible hose.
Neil.
It's a molded hose - comes with the anti-collapse spring installed. Fits like a glove on my '78 chassis w/ 454. In addition to GM Part # on attached tag, the hose itself has imprinting that says, "343414 KA GM KV-L"
Maybe to help in matching up, upper hose is GM Part #6259953
Neil,
If ya strike out locally, go to:
http://www.gmpartshouse.com/Part #343414 is shown as "hose assy" and available.....about $30 + S&H.
Good luck....

bill hGive NAPA a try. They should be able to convert Lee's GM number to one of theirs. Be sure any lower hose you use has a spring inside. Or reuse the old one.
