Napa hose.

A good half hour with the parts books at my friendly parts store
and I could not find a compatible hose. I had a new hose made at
Hose Line Inc (Glendal CA local to me), cost $50 even, but it's
perfect. Twice the cost of a NAPA hose, but I couldn't locate one
of those.

83 258 in a 1970 hornet. Flare fittings on pump and steering gear,
both on same side of car. The perfect hose was 7/16" inverted M
flare 270-degree, 16" hose (ferrule to ferrule), 3/8" inverted M
flare 90-degree. Fittings had 90-degree rotation on hose.

Length is absolutely perfect; no part of the host rests on
anything, but if necessary I could cable-tie it over to the block

if it looks like it will vibrate.
