Guys, My motors in...just put the driveshaft in yesterday, torque convertor bolts,...I'm trying to close out the little things to get it cranked. I used an 82 F-body radiator. This radiator is bigger than the original v-6 rad, I pulled out. I have a 455/400trans, and need the upper and lower rad hoses...anyone have part #'s, or what application to tell the part stores? I'm thinking any F-body stock combo won't work, being chevy mtrs...and not sure about g-body 307 applications...figured I'd ask before going the trial and error way. Thanx.
 
What about hoses from a 2nd generation FBody with a 403ci :idea:

upper - NBH #7858
lower - NBH #7460
 
Hoses for a 307 should work fine.

2nd gen f-body uses a more vertical thermostat housing and a screwed up hose (to mimic the Pontiac motors), and won't work with the more common thermostat housings.

307 hoses will be fine.
