Anyone know where I can purchase a metal heater hose reducer. 3/4 to 5/8. Found a plastic one, but a little nervous about "plastic" reliability.

Instead buy a heater hose that is 5/8 with a 3/4 bell on one end

Thanks guys.... I'll check it out. Now if I could just find a heater hose with a molded 45 degree bend on one end....

Try taking a look at the various hoses at the parts store. If you can't find that, try a Gates unicoil hose shaping coil. I used a unicoil on a previous project and it worked great.

They have all kinds of unique stuff.

I can second that. I use their radiator hose reducers/splicers when making custom hoses.
