67-72 LS3 guys! Upper radiator hose? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

OK, I've switch to an LS3/L99 water pump on my LS1 with ICT Billet brackets. Any of you guys using the same pump, what did you use for radiator hoses?

It's a 66 but maybe give you some ideas. I bought some silicone elbows, those shrinkable hose clamps and aluminum radiator piping from summit and made this one.

Also, I used one of these for the lower, would also work for upper.

Stole these pics from dayj1's "another way to skin the cat" thread, before Photobucket screwed the pooch. Pretty sure second pic is the upper he used with LS3 pump and stock radiator

Any pics of this installed?

What's going on with Photobucket anyway?

That is one reason I do not use a photo sharing site. Once a picture is moved or relabeled the thread it is attached to is ruined!

Nothing worst than searching for information and find someone spent many many hours on a thread to share and help others to find out that the pictures he is referring to are not there or missing!

Upper hose from a early 2000's camaro ss with a 5.7 will fit with no modification. Tried to post pix, but it wound up sideways... If I can find another, I'll post. Upper from Camaro, lower from 2003 Silverado. No modifications required on my build.

They decided to start charging for third party hosting, I hear $400 a year...

Im going to try GATES 23080 on mine. I saw someone else running it and bought one to try but I haven't gotten that far yet. Im running a stock type replacement radiator, not an ls swap style.

gringoloco that looks pretty nice, I really like the steam port and how clean it its, might have to use something like that on mine.

Yep, that is correct. this is pulled from their blog:

"Moving forward, new and legacy free account users will NOT have third party
hosting available.

If you were a Plus Account subscriber in good standing as of June 1, 2017,
you will continue to have all the privileges you have enjoyed including 3rd
Party Hosting until December 31, 2018 as long as you maintain your
subscription.

Non Plus 500 Account subscribers that purchased after June 1, 2017 will not
have access to 3rd Party Hosting."

I'm lucky I won't be affected until end of 2018.

Not luck if you already had a paid sub lol. If you guys need places to host, IMgur or Google Photos are your best bet. Tinypic is alright as well. Most of the others have too many limits if you have a larger/high traffic build or threads.

DLW · 07-13-2017, 07:55 PM

Just luck I wasn't instantly screwed like a lot of the free subs were and have a year and half to figure it out. I'm going to look into the google photos in the mean time.

Yes the second one is the upper. I used that on my 72 Blazer with a 6.0 fit was awesome.
