Would like to dress the heater hoses down the passenger side of the intake manifold to the rear of the engine. There are some tight bends so I'm thinking there must be some formed hoses for the application. When I google this type of stuff I end up with more questions than answers after hours gone by. Some of you must have done this already, could you point me in the right direction?
Thanks, Steve

Have you considered braided lines and fittings?

Yes, that's what I did with the A/C - makes the lines even stiffer and more difficult to go around tight corner. If I can find the right molded hose I will consider putting a stainless braid cover on it...

Never mind, decided to go a different route once I started to look at where I have space available to mount the heater valve.

I know you said never mind but, here’s a picture of how I ran mine on my roadster. The long front line is standard for 87-93 Mustang. The other lines I bent a wire to the shape I needed and took that to my local Auto Value. They have one a 50 foot long display rack of heater and rad hoses. Was able to find what I needed.
Good Luck
