Hi guys , I'm in the midst of doing several upgrades and freshening things up, well anyways one of my coolant hoses under the intake manifold has a pesky leak I'm looking to replace them . I've researched most people say to just bring them to local auto parts store to get them matched up. I will do that but I'm looking to do a silicone layered hoses like samco anyone have any ideas thanks

Don't bother with that. I doubt they'd have anything close to the shape you need and it would be pricey.
Just get normal hose

Samco sells a 180*

Normal hose lasts long enough...but otherwise get a set of calipers and start measuring!
