Found some gates hoses at oriely's to finish up the passenger side hose connections. That lower radiator hose is just over 2.1" which is perfect for the Ford quick connect. The other end is 2" to mate to the 3rd Gen inlet. It has an internal spring to prevent collapse. The 2" side needs between 1.5 to 1.75 inches cut off to clear the frame with the DCS engine mounts. The destroked mounts put the engine to the driver side. I'm going to use a gates shrink band at the radiator end.

The heater hose is a 90° quick connect into a gates hose with two 90's turned out of phase. I'm mating this to the Ford heater hose and clamping it with oetiker clamps like OEM. This puts both heater hoses coming to the rear of the alternator before they diverge.

Has anyone had trouble with the Ford radiator hoses not wanting to clip on to an aftermarket radiator? Click the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.
