Is this called a bypass hose?
It looks like mine is leaking a little, it's most likely 10years old LOL

Is this a specific part since it's almost 90° angle
(if so would advanced/autozone/orilley's carry it?)

I couldnt find it at murrays(similar to autozone,advanced,etc) so one of those others u listed MIGHT have it. I ended up just going to the dealer. I tried to make it with some heater tubing but it kinked up.
 
yep, bypass hose. I have not looked close - Nate do you know if a fox bypass hose (available at the parts store) is close to fitting? At least that hose comes with the bend preformed.......

Good luck.
 
Yeah i had a leak in mine and i bought mine from pep boys. I had to cut it quite a bit though, because it was way to long and the bend was in the wrong area, but i made it work.

U know what, im not sure. I imagine it should fit.

I didnt give it much time. I was tired and been workin on the engine swap all day and went to the place that i knew would have it. I didnt feel like dealing with the IDIOTS that you run into at those part stores. :bang:
 
found one at AutoZone tonight for $4 and had to cut ½" off so it would fit. :nice:

Had some packages on the door step when I got back-
OEM Cobra headlamps
FMS 65mm T-body
Steeda STB for Cobra/GT40 which won't fit with my 1" intake spacer (hits top of t-body) :(
Guess I'll look for a ½" spacer now.

Cool. Was it a dedicated hose or did you match it up? If the latter, do you happen to have a brand and part number for those of us who will need to do the same in the future? :nice: (I ask since I generally have to mangle/cut the old ones off and then they are not in much shape for matching up). :D
 
autozone had mine when it blew up and sprayed antifreeze all over my motor. It's in their computer, so you should be able to find it there, or another sister store. I also replaced the other small hose, as well as the main hoses and heater hoses while I was there. Don't want to deal w/ that crap again.

Thanks guys. :nice: I guess it is not as hard to find as I thought (half the battle seems to be finding out what parts are screwed up in their computer).
