awesome, i got the elbows and radiator hoses in from amazon. hoses look a little bit smaller but the inner diameter should be the same. i used gates hoses. the dorman elbows look good and i can't wait to get them installed and see if that fixes my problem. also going to order an LIM gasket i think also before i do the teardown. i will do the grease but i'm not using rtv. any advice before i attempt anything? and thank yall so much!
