The most stock looking radiator hoses I have found are Dayco part #666 (upper) and #679 (lower). Figs. I and 2 show the hoses positioned as you would see them when looking at the engine from the front.


Cut the upper hose (the bottom one in the photo) as marked by the tape and mount this end on the thermostat housing.

The lower hose gets two inches cut off each end, and the end with the slight bend is mounted on the water pump.

Most of those numbers we have published for Tiger radiator hoses are good, but there is one number that is not. Do not, repeat, do not order Dayco No. 71016 for use as a lower hose. It’s too small in diameter.

Numbers for hoses that do work are as follows:

Upper 70627 Dayco
71015 Dayco
CH666 Dayco
Overflow tank 70531 Dayco
Lower 21034 Gates

All will require some cutting to fit and, as you can see, the upper is an easy match.

Having replaced the stock valve cover breather cap with an after-market chromed one, the search was on for a hose to connect the breather cap to the air cleaner.

The stock breather cap has a right angle bend in the vent tube coming from the cap but the after-market cap (a Ford part) had a straight tube.

A perfect hose was found in Gates part #21309. It is the correct diameter and length requiring no trimming for a perfect fit.
