    did the coolant mod

    From Below

    and fixed some more stuff

    I wasn't happy with how the Detroit Speedworks adapter left the coolant hose setup, so I started over on that with a new ford adapter and some aluminum tubing

    Here's the old adapter and the new one with the elbow welded on

    New lower radiator hose

    hose in place

    I also had to modify the intercooler fitting at the front of the intake to clear the alternator, it's not the prettiest but it works.
