HOSES:
Top Hose: Dayco 70651cs -
This hose is very long and had close to a foot of extra length I didn't
need. I used a 1-1/2" ID to 1-1/4" ID Hose adapter to connect it
to the radiator, NAPA PN 900 "Hose Adapter"
Bottom Hose: Dayco 71217 -
Perfect fit with my custom low mouted alternator. Looks OE.
Heater Hoses: Dayco 80407 - This is
a long straight hose with a 90 degree bend at one end. I used one
for each hose, with the 90 degree bend at the heater box/valve. Plenty
of length to reach the front of the engine.
FAN:
For a fan, I used a Ford 1998 Mustang GT radiator
cooling fan. It is a two speed unit, and the low speed pulls more
air than the Flexlite 150 fan! It pulls around 20 amps on the low
speed and 35 on the high speed! I hacked off the large mounting "ears"
off of each side and fastened it with brackets that sandwich the shroud.
It its mounted at four points, two top from the top radiator bracket and
at two points below to the lower radiator bracket. Summit Motor Products
(not Summit Racing) makes a pigtail for wiring it, PN 60036.
WATER PUMP:
Jim also told me about Stewart
Components which makes a series of high flow, low drag water pumps.
I bought a Stage 2 pump (long form factor, machine polished). The
theory that Howard Stewart bases his cooling systems on is that higher
flow rates mean better cooling. He also has redesign the internal
passages of the pump casting to equalize flow on both sides of the engine.
His pumps are supposedly used by most of the NASCAR set.
