Just got done removing the oil cooler in my cobra and need some help. I put in a new heater hose from the water pump to the hard heater line on top of the intake and there is a small kink in it since it was just a straight universal heater line. Would this cause a problem and if so, where do i find the custom bend hose for our cars??
 
I was able to find an exact replacement after about 10 different auto stores, but they also have that thing that looks like a spring that gos over the tube and allows it to bend without kinking. dont know what they are called but i saw some in the isle at autozone.
