More white junk again this morning with more on the way, not what we want to see for this weekend`s car show. A good thing it`s indoors but still a bummer for the cars to get to and from the show.
I have the 1980 Mercury car 302 thermostat housing which is 1 5/8'', what the hose size of the one you posted, NAPA #'s John? It looks like it`ll work if the size is right.
Why not buy them both Colin, the F250 and 2014 F150 max tow!
Mostly cloudy here too John, supposed to warm up a bit on Sunday, a day after the car show is over.
Sounds like a quiet Easter for you, Kalan, and your pup Grant.

Hello Morris, Grant said the upper hose number was #8643 and had to be cut to fit for length. I ordered them this morning..

I`ll give NAPA a call, hopefully it`s the right one. I have a few other places to try but I`m getting stumped.

I can get just about any size rad connection since the rad is still at the rad shop but the 1980 Mercury car 302 has 1 1/8 thremostat housing. What vehicle is your thermostat housing from and what yr?

Happy Good Friday mornin'all. Morris; My 302/ 5.0 is out of an 88 Lincoln Town Car. If I were you I'd switch to the 1 1/2 housing if you have. It is much easier. Have a great weekend guy's.

Sorry but not much to show as it just looks like a pile of junk. I`m slowly sorting things out after 40 some yrs of hoarding in different buildings. I`ll try to post some pictures if I ever get things a bit more organised.
Back at you Bridgeford, have a safe Easter weekend!.
Hi Sherm, where have you been hiding? Have a Happy and safe Easter. Don`t eat any of those eggs your rabbits start lay.
Thanks for the tip Grant. I`ll look for a 1 1/2'' housing Grant, simple is good.
