Why not the upper hose for a truck that motor could've come in?

For the LS1 swaps, a lot of guys are using the 93-95 Camaro 3.4L V6 upper hoses. Not sure if it'll work for the truck WP but it's worth a shot.

No, the truck goes straight up on the WP and then ***** out a bit, that is the issue.

Cut the V6 hose in half and use a piece of pipe in the middle
