Default Tubing question...

If a radiator has a screw connector with a OD of 3/8, what size hose should i get?

Actually, you should screw on a barb. The coolant can spiral out of the screw groove, regardless of clamps, unless your tubing is pretty soft.

Otherwise, you'd pick 3/8 ID hose, which would be 1/2 OD (or 5/8 OD, for thick wall).
