heater to radiator pipe
Where do you get a new heater core to radiator pipe? I really dont like the look of a hose running across the valve cover.

Re: heater to radiator pipe
You can always fabricate and install your own heater hose routing and relocate the heater valve. I welded up some copper tubing and elbows for the heater valve, made an aluminum bracket to mount the valve to under and below the A/C compressor, replaced the OE hoses with bulk stock from the auto parts store, and routed the hoses down along the lower passenger side frame rail. Very clean and no longer cluttering the valve cover.
Use your imagination! Good luck
