8BA Radiator Hoses
Does anyone have a stock number of a name brand upper and lower radiator hose that I can ask for at the local parts store for a 49 F1 8BA? I’ve got a fresh rebuild and I’m dying to start it. I’ve searched the internet and I’m dying to start and run it

Do you have the steel tubes? or are you looking for single-piece hoses?
If using the steel tubes, NAPA sells 1-1/4" ID hose (for the uppers) and 1-3/4" (lowers) by the foot. The lowers are each 7-1/2" long so you need 2 ft. Probably the same for uppers (4 pieces).

I don’t have the upper tubes but a flexible hose with no pipes would need to be 25-30”

Here's your steel tubes. It shouldn't take long to get a pair.

And like Ross said, after that, it's just buying a couple lengths of bulk straight hose to connect everything together. Upper and lower are different diameters.
Upper hose, cut into 4 pieces, 2@ 2 1/2" long, 2@ 4 1/4" long

Lower hose, cut into 2 pieces 71/2" long.

I'm sure you can find bulk hose cheaper locally, though.
