Not that mine is the cheapest, easiest of cleanest route, but I got a prebent metal pipe from B&B. They gave me the part number for the bent hose portion on the lower, and then I used a straight peice of Gates hose that was difficult to find for the part from the water pump to the metal pipe. So far so good. It will most likely be replaced with cool flex eventually.

B&B also gave me the part number for the upper hose. Mine fits great with slight trimming. Only problem is if I move the water pump from the drivers side to the passengers side, I think I am going to have to change hoses. Radiator is most likely going to come out shortly for body fitment, and at that time, I may move the alternator, getting rid of the ugly lincoln bracket accessory that my builder gave me and replacing it with a March billet peice. Should take off about 5 pounds at least!
