Lower Radiator Hoses

There is a for sale ad on a website that maybe what I need. The problem is the dimensions are given in millameters. The length is given as 210MM and diameter as 45MM. By the picture the would be ok. It's the diameter that I need in inches. These lower hoses are for my 1951 Ford V8 which are 1 3/4 inches. Can anyone assure me that 45MM is the same as 1 3/4 inches?
 
45mm/25.4(mm/")=1.77165.

Here's a tip : go to google and type in "45mm-". It'll give you the answer.

It looks close enough since its rubber.
 
tubman has 45mm correct.


210mm is 8.26 "


Just checked a 45mm hose I have on a 36 w/pump(outlet 1 3/4") and its loose

Although this is slightly off-topic, the very phrase “lower radiator hoses” immediately conjures a stream of profanity (in my mind)
