Re: Help with LS swap radiator hose

are you using the top port above the upper hose outlet for your steam vent?
Yes, I used the stock hose clamp to clamp it to the upper radiator hose. It needs to relearn its shape a little, but it lays pretty well. This pic was a test fit before I clamped it all.

Excellent thanks so much for the info.

Where did you get the clamp? Is it off a late model Silverado?
