No worries. The finish is very good... actually I would be happy if all the alloy bits under the hood were finished that well.

I also have billet mounts and AN fittings to replace the current steam vent set up.... just a matter of connecting but will wait till clockwise water pump is fitted..... no more additional pulleys and can shorten the vent line.

A lot of kit cars out there have just not got it right.
There are some very sound ideas and good schematics on this site. Mainly LS orientated..........but it explains cooling pretty well. Muz

What size hoses did you use to connect to the water pump. When i measure them they dont seem to match the available filler sizes or my radiator.

Any pics of how you guys mounted the alternator? Thats my next challenge given the limited space. Actually considering a revers mount from the front.

it was a special order hose from samco, same price as a normal hose but it's not the one in the pic. Its a 90 degree reducer inch and half to whatever the od is on the water pump pipe ( can't remember but I have it somewhere). The water pump side hose was also 100mm longer to cover the complete water pump pipe.

Got all my hoses from WRS on the gold coast, great guys and reliable service.
