5.0 in 65 NEED FORMED RAD HOSES

Installed the 1989 5.0 ( FI replaced with carb ) into the 65 years ago, During to time constraints then I used the universal upper & lower hoses, and at the same time I went to the 90 degree thermostat housing.
NOW, I would like to replace the universal hoses for FORMED ones.
I'm sure there a MANY on here have done this swap and may have the hose part numbers handy.
ANY help appreciated.
BTW, at the time I also got aluminum 1965 replacement radiator, from my understanding at the time it was identical.

I would drive your truck to your local NAPA (or whoever you normally use), and ask to see hoses for a bumpside with a 302, hopefully they'll let you take them out to the parking lot to compare & see if they'll work for you.......
And if not, they might allow you peruse their hose rack in the back so you can see if any others look viable.

Time consuming for workers & customers

YES, thanks for the idea, I have done this in the past, BUT have long since been annoyed myself having to WAIT to get a part or check out BECAUSE workers are out in the parking lot dealing with such, BEEN on both ends and prefer HAVING part numbers in advance!

Installed 66 radiator in my 65 so the size of the inlet and outlet possibly different? Also, may find it difficult to compare these particular brands in local auto parts store, suggest inquire in advance or have them check for appropriate cross reference and compare. The upper radiator hose is on the passenger's side, and the lower hose is on the driver's side.

Goodyear: 60967 upper
Goodyear: 60995 lower

THANKS allot Dave, if you don't mind me asking do you have the 90 Degree thermostat housing? Do you remember your inlet & outlet sizes?
