Looking for Braided Radiator Hose 3.8l

[Representative]

Hello,

I am looking for a braided radiator hose for a 3.8lt ecotec. I cannot seem to find any in my searches and was wondering if anyone might know where I can pick one up.
Only for cosmetics...

Cheers

I think you can just buy a roll of braid and the end covers and cut to size and fit over your existing hose, hose restoration/hot rod shops sell the kits etc

There is no actual braided radiator hose, you can either do as suggested above or make an actual proper braided hose using something from Aeroflow but it's gonna cost a small fortune.

Go to an auto parts store.....They sell braided line in a kit, so you've just got to fit it upto your own hoses, as immortality mentioned....

Might even get it cheaper than that ebay link you sent and get more hoses done in the process

That is a regular radiator hose with a braided sleeve over the top using regular worm hose clamps and dress up ends to look like threaded braided hose style fittings.
