Hi guys,
I've been searching for a lower radiator hose for my setup and looked at Gates 20609, 20697, goodyear 61301 and similar. Can anyone confirm if the 20609 is my best choice here?

Thanks

Hello
I am going to drop a well built 351c / TCI street fighter C6 into my 67. Does anyone else have this setup? My concern is clearance using that transmission.
I was running the 351c with a 4 speed prior to this setup.
