Sealing heater hoses to core

[markz]

Yes. Mopar repro hoses.

Are they the right size - with Mopar you never know if they were made right? Are the tubes clean and round?

Should be right size. They fit the water pump just fine. I could try snipping an inch and add some more sealant and I have a few more of those oem style clamps that hadn't been used yet. I was thinking last night if I could get a small screw style clamp and put it on. Paint it black and out the oem style clamp over the top of it for appearance sake.

Wonder if thread sealant/pipe dope on the tube or inside the hose would help?

Sealant is the wrong application for this. Are the clamps the right size? I thought I recently read where some of the repo clamps were too big and some folks were buying some from McMaster Carr and they fit well and looked original.
