[Tigers] radiator hose sucking shut

Jim 
	Lower radiator hose
Warm the engine up then watch the radiator hose as you increase the rpm's 

If the hose collapses you have a problem but now you know where it is.

Hello,
 
Still trying to debug my rebuilt 260 with new LAT 1 option.
 
It continues to run really really hot, even with a  Derale puller fan  and
an 
electric pusher. Real hot: like 240-250 indicated on a warm day,  slightly 
less on a cooler one.
 
I remember someone mentioning the internal spring that prevents a hose from

getting sucked closed.
 
If you would, which hose is it? I sure hope it is this and not something  
much more "deadly"
 
Thanks,
