Love the car. I would not change a thing, and I am a picky bugger.

Good job!

The upper rad hose is pretty standard, it is just that the lower one takes a bit of work to get to fit, cutting it at both ends depending on how far back the position of your engine is from your rad. The part numbers can be seen in the pics. Hope this helps. I don't know if you have the same rad as I so please note that my choices may not fit your application.

This one for the lower, not my car, but hose below has been used for the same swap.

Don't have the part number for the upper but is sold at Hawks, shown below.

Thanks to all with feedback on the build. Drove it and must say I could not be happier with the outcome.

The stance looks great!

Wait until you mod that thing... These engines wake right up with very little effort.

Only thing I am updating Benny at this point is the shifter to an angled style like below.
It drives great, just need an alignment since the suspension is new. Should have that done within the next few days.

Not to take away from the recent builds, but just turned 6000 miles this summer, and wanted to share a vid.
