Default Radiator hoses

Alright guys Im wrapping up the little things and this is a big one on the list. I read that these hoses would work for my setup and the upper hose fits perfect. The lower on the other hand would fit if it was another 2 inchs longer. Im looking for another lower hose im guessing. What is everyone else running? This is a 67 camaro with stock subframe,Entropy radiator for an lsx swap in a first gen, stock height solid mounts, S&P adapter plates, 327 engine stands. Here are the part number that I have currently...

This is my upper hose - Dayco 71620

This is the lower hose - Gates 20450

I don't have a part number, but I have a simple way to get the molded hoses I want. I take a piece of welding rod (or a straightened coat hanger) and bend and trim it to the shape and length I want. Take that down to the local auto parts store and they let me look through their hose selection until I find one that works. It may be longer or have extra bends, but I find one that has a section of it that matches what I want. I have always got exactly what I wanted that way.

Make sure you know the diameter of hose you need, and the hose end sizes if they're different. LS stuff is smaller.

Try a Napa Part # 9038 Lower. Never tried it myself but heard it works.
