Are these hoses worth buying, to replace the stock ones?

 

I have the lower hose on my car, upper is a different brand.So far, so good.

 

So it does fit right?
Not so long ago I bought a similar hose set for my Alfa Romeo, and it didn't fit at all...( got my money back...)

 

Yes, no fitment issues.

 

Thanks, I'll order them.

 

Well, the lower hose seems to fit, but the upper one absolutely not.
I asked the Chinese Ebay vendor for a reaction, but they send a none sense answer.
So I now opened a dispute on Paypal, and want at least half my money back
This is the second time I used this seller, the first time I ordered hoses for my Alfa Romeo, that didn't fit at all, non of them....(got my money back), now it's trouble again, so stay away from G-Plus would be my advise, they don't know what they are selling at all...

 

So I still need a new, upper, black silicon coolant hose for my stock '88 Firebird V-8, anywhere to look...?

 

I wouldn't mind finding a set for my car also. They definitely look a fair bit nicer than just dull black heater hose.

 

Mishimoto & OBX are two other brands out there, but you may have to buy the whole set to get that upper hose.
Im partly at fault here, i should have mentioned that i had to mix & match for those hoses.Since i had to buy two different kits.None of which are for a 3rd gen.

 

Those hoses look exactly like the ones that fit my TBI V8. It also has the same thermostat housing as the carb models, but not TPIs. I think that is the issue here

 

Unfortunately, this is exactly the issue.
