Gates 69-76 Chevrolet Corvette V-8 350 Lower Molded Coolant Hose

This is the lower molded coolant hose for your 1969-1976 Chevrolet Corvette with a 350 V-8 engine. It connects your radiator to the water pump, allowing coolant to circulate and keep your engine from overheating. A proper fit is crucial here, as a leak can quickly lead to serious engine damage.

Gates makes this hose specifically for the C3 Corvette, meaning it has the correct bends and length to install without a struggle. It's made from heat-resistant rubber compounds that can handle the constant temperature cycles and pressure found in your cooling system. This helps ensure it won't crack or collapse over time, maintaining consistent coolant flow.

When replacing your coolant hoses, it's a good idea to check the upper hose and thermostat as well. Having all the components in good working order will help keep your classic Corvette running cool.
