Default Heater Hose Routing SB 1969 with A/C

Sorry, but I did not understand this routing :

http://keenparts.com/pages/Catalog3....5025&year=1969

I bought this hosekit

https://www.paragoncorvette.com/p-35...-hose-kit.aspx

Which hose goes in the HeaterControlValve and then in the Heatercore ?

Do I have to cut the small hose so it fits in the HCV and use the rest to connect with the HC ?

Thanks a lot in advance

the hoses are two different sizes, only one of them matches the size of the pipe on the control valve. The hose that matches is cut to run as you stated, small section to heater core the rest to the engine.

I just ran these myself, like Melwff said they are two different sizes, the one goes straight to the engine while the other is cut.

Thanks for your replies.
Funny that the vendors do not give a note that you would have to cut one of the hoses.

Meanwhile a new issue is priority :

Have to change the flexplate, old one was destroyed by a High Torque starter , looks like it was not correct working
