Hey all, Was wondering if anyone on this list has replaced the original steel coolant lines with the 1.5'' four part system? I finally got mine in place in addition to a new radiator and had a few questions in terms of the install. The pipes are strong and sturdy under the van, but I plan to use some worm drive clamps to get a tighter fit. The question I have is with the pipe entry points into the engine bay. They are not exact. It seems like I will make it work in terms of attaching to the coolant hoses, but just wanted to know if anyone else had the same placement of pipes. Essentially I want to make sure I did not do anything glaringly wrong. video of underside of van: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXfMl5ZzNZA video of engine bay (100Mb file): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/867582/steel-lines.MOV images: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/867582/steel-lines1.JPG http://dl.dropbox.com/u/867582/steel-lines2.JPG http://dl.dropbox.com/u/867582/steel-lines3.JPG I think I might be firing up this van soon. Wish me luck. I'll be the last in the group-18 bostig. Quite an achievement. +n
