heater hoses
« on: August 28, 2009, 12:55:52 AM »
Anyone know the correct original heater hose style for a 68 camaro?  I was told the ribbed but I thought they were only used for 69 and up. Or would either GM or ribbed style be acceptable?

Thanks,  so it is for sure, no ribbed hoses in 68!

I had the same question about heater hoses , only for 67. I came across some tech photos in an old Camaro Enthusiast Mag, dated March, 1998. In  these photos it shows a 19,000 mile 67 RS/SS 396 with 5 groove heater hoses, and the article stated that they were original.  Can anyone help or comment on this article. Thanks.
