About time you posted lol... What are you using on lower rad hose. I'm catching up to you
Fyi, you can get a stainless rad hose kit on ebay for like $40 and it comes with adapters and hose end covers. You just need either a bodysaw with a decent blade(my $18 HF one did the trick) or a good cutoff wheel.

yeah i did all the pre fitting before i clamped it,problem is im keeping the battery on the pass side so my air intake is sandwiched on the drivers side with everything else which in turn sandwiches my radiator hose,ive considered the 4.3L thermostat housing.grabbed one from a truck and its not the right one,must be different housings on 4.3's the one i got dosent allow the angle back behind the alternator th.jpeg
hgfd.jpeg this is the one i need to route the hose behind the alt

do you have any pics of your updated fuel lines? Im trying to figure out if Fbody or a vette fuel rail is better.
