you can install it either direction, but only one way is correct. The long leg goes to the radiator.

Not true Brad!....If the long leg of the hose is connected to the radiator, the hose will most likely come in contact with the top of the "J" bolt battery holddown. ( on round light '63 Avantis)

That interference between hose and bolt will cause the top radiator hose to eventually 'rub through' and leak!

Answer to question.....FALSE! (shorter end goes to radiator)
