Default 90 - 94 upper radiator hose

does anybody know if the 90 upper radiator hose will fit the 94 lt1. I did the throtle bypass, and mated the 2 upper hoses together. I would like to get a new one piece hose, but 91 and after has the t split for the bypass in the upper hose. I belive 90 and early don't have the t. Thanks for any ideas!

I believe either the '95 or the '96 upper hose is one peice and will replace your 2 pc. hose.

a special thanks to cnl3rd and champ. your advice was correct. i went to chevy and they pulled up the prints, and 95 and 96 are one piece that fit with no problems. again thank you guys for your help.

late to the part on this one, but yup, the '95 and up hose is the way to go.. did this on my '94 as well after the tb bypass. i had previously just put a rubber cap/end on the t-connector in the middle of the '94 hose but one split on me once and sprayed coolant everywhere.. the '95 hose is the correct fit, plus my braided hose coverings fit over it very nicely pics to come after i finish my 383 install.. another week or so!

I want to install a 95-96 upper rad hose on my 93 and eliminate the hose I now have going around the TB. I want to install the braided hose covering, or go with one of the chrome coverings like the street rods use. What about the TB hose connection on the passenger side. What year hose will fit that side to eliminate the "T" fitting?

I went to an auto parts store and replaced the T fiting with a straight fitting. Can't even tells it's there unless you look closely. The straight fitting only cost a couple of bucks. I don't remember the size though.

I believe it's 3/4 inch for the passenger heater hose. Does that sound right?
