I believe this was discussed on forum 1.0...

The concourse correct upper radiator hose put out by Marti Auto Works seems to be a bit short. Also, the upper bend by the top of the radiator is more gradual (most likely due to the shorter length) then the almost 90 degree bend of the originals.

Has anyone else run into this issue? If so, how did you resolve the issue?

Thanks!

I solved the problem by finding a good supply of genuine 67 upper hoses. PM me if someone needs one.

I had the same problem several years ago.  I called them and told them the radiator size, I believe 20", and they sent me the correct hose that fit perfectly.

You are welcome!  Check your radiator measurement because my memory is not as good as it used to be.
