49 larger size water neck for the hoses on early cars
 

I saw in one of the parts catalogue awhile back that someone had the larger water neck on the 8 ba engines where you didn't have to make some kind of bushings to go to the larger hose,any help here????

I just cut off a piece of 1-1/4 hose, slip it over the 8ab housing then use the 1-3/4 hose to the radiator. It works fine and a lot cheaper. Walt
