    The lower one goes to the intake, the upper to the water pump if staggered vertically.  The inner one goes to the intake, the outer to the water pump if in a straight line.

    I know how they are connected, i was trying to figure out which one is the inlet vs the outlet to see where the little yellow flow restrictor plug goes into.  The plug goes into the inlet, but is that the higher or lower hose?

    NM, found a diagram.  The lower one is the inlet.

    Yes, lower is inlet.  Pressure on the lower purges the air out the upper....

    I am looking for a source for interior paint for my 1964 Falcon. The Ford paint code for the matte or satin paint is 1578 and DuPont # 9094-LH Medium Blue Metallic. 
    Can anyone provide a good source for this paint code? It is very similar to the 1965-66 Mustang interior color, which would be acceptable.
    All responses will be appreciated.
     

    Tommy, you'll probably get better responses if you start a new thread/subject.
