Hello - the car was up on the hydraulic jack in front. Used the hose with the spring (there was a debate on whether or not it was necessary (local Vette shop said it wasn't) but I went with the forum members suggestions and went with spring...glad I did). I used anti-freeze to get the hose on. Worked well! It was a difficult job, my first classic, and I have zero mechanical skills, and I'll tell you, after all was said and done, VERY rewarding!

Sorry F4 Gary - This post slipped by me...
To flush the radiator, I used regular water from my hose. To refill, I used premium universal 50/50 anti-freeze/coolant with ethylene glycol.
