Re: Coolant hoses

If you have acess to a mandrel pipe bender a custom pipe should be no problem. Maybe go behind the alternator as you said, tig on a mounting tab or two, and utilize an existing boss on the head. Your engine bay looks nice, however, I cringed when I saw your tools resting on the radiator. That gap between the radiator and the front support cost me big time once. I had a prybar resting there, knocked it off, fell through gap and took out my radiator. I made a plate that goes between the two radiator supports and covers the whole top of the radiator. On your truck it would look good painted to match or polished.
