I was able to loop it around without kinking and attach to the pump and radiator inlet. Thanks all! Now to figure out what to do about a throttle cable for my drive by cable throttle body!
On my last LS swap, I used a Lokar floor mount cable pedal assembly. Fit and worked very well. I've seen stock cable floor mounts used from later models (3 mounting holes/ mid 90's I think) and they seem to work very well too. My brother sold one at the Petit Jean swap meet a couple of weeks ago for I think 10 bucks. They are out there. Either will work...
