Does anybody know of a site that has a good selection of molded water hose
(radiator style)? I'm trying to locate a tough piece for my '70 Interceptor
Inboard. I found this site, but there's no specs...

Try he http://www.marinepartsrus.com/

Go down to your local autoparts store and take your hose. They most likely
can look at their selection and match up a workable piece. You may have to
cut off some extra.

Now there's good advice! Go to the auto parts store, ask the busy parts
counter guy to paw through every hose in the place, find one kinda-semi
like the one you have, take it home and try it. You may have to go back
a couple of times, but I'm sure the parts guy will love seeing you come
in. Then you may get one similar, may have to kink it around corners,
but, hey, there IS the possiblilty that it won't overheat! OR, you can
get the correct hose for the application.

I realize the autoparts store in your area dislikes you. But even Kragens /
Shucks here will let you peruse there supply of hoses. Take the hose with
you and match it to the ones on the wall.

Really? Do tell the group how you know this to be fact.

Hmm, let's see, thousands of applications, and they aren't on the wall.
They are behind the counter, behind the wall, where parts stores have
their parts. AND, you said HAVE THEM match one. Also, molded hoses have
molded ends. You can't just go hacking it off where you want. Now, I
ask, why not buy the hose intended for the application?

Why do you insist on turning even the most basic discussions (in this case,
about a damn water hose) into arguments? Let it go already Kevin. Life
goes on.
