I will defiantly try the Monte Carlo hoses, I spent all my budget on the disc conversion, all new bushings, shocks, sway bar, springs, sandblasting, paint, and all new steering linkage....the thought of having to spend another 100 or more on hoses (I would love to go to steel flex hoses, but I also want the car back on the road before the summer ends!!) right now was not gonna happen, and the outlook of finding a rubber hose for now was getting slim....I'll let you all know how it works out....
