Camaro 97 SS Hose Kit replacement help

I came across this hose Kit.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Summit-Raci...3/333368907094

do you think it would fit on a Camaro 97 SS ? the post indicates it does but I wanted to double check, Also how difficult would it be to change all of these hoses? Anyone with similar previous experience ?

Thanks

Looking at the part number on Summit directly, it looks like it would fit. I would personally buy straight from Summit... https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-390213/overview/

Re: Camaro 97 SS Hose Kit replacement help

it is a major job? like the need to uninstall other parts to reach to the right hoses or just straightforward ?

Most of the hoses are not too bad to get to, but you will obviously need to properly refill and bleed the cooling system. I would personally only do this if you are having issues with your hoses.

‘If’ your car needs hoses (cracks and leaking) go with OE hoses.

Since I am maintaining the car and replacing consumable parts I thought the blue hoses would be cool after 23 years
however,decided not to do anything and just replace with OE only hoses if needs replacement.

If you just wanted to dress the hoses up, there are kits the go over the hoses. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/s...caAjvFEALw_wcB

I have not ever personally done this, but it might fit a want/need for you.
