What Top Radiator Hose is used on a 308 when running an Edlebrock Manifold that uses a Chevy Style Thermostat Housing . When the Housing is secured in the right position (Outlet Pipe swivels ), the Outlet covers the counter-sunk Set Screw that holds the Housing to the Manifold!

There are adjustable ones available (Aeroflow) but they are very flow restricting. I took it off my yellow LJ and cured its overheating problem.

Maybe trim the radiator end a little to get it to swivel forward just enough? Mine has a standard hose (I think I trimmed one end at least), the bolt is only just accessible but it does work. Might depend on your manifold?

Problem sorted - $120 later - bought another Chev Thermostat Housing - this time with a 45 degree Neck - cut down an old Allen Key - Bob’s your Uncle!
