Just finished. Added a polished Alloy shield on exhaust manifold and an fitting lines to the heatercore lines and you can also see my oil return line in the pic. Also polished the front of the head.

Looks nice! :thumbsup So what did you need to do in order to connect the braided line to the thermostat housing? I believe its just a hose nipple that comes off of it right? Pretty sweet man!

where'd ya get the braided hose kit? i've looked around everywhere and can't find them. Mach V motorsports says that they might be discontinued.....and i wanted them soooo bad.

What I did was buy a 3/8 fitting for the thermo housing and a 10 an house connection from teh hose to the 3/8 connector and I removed the nipple and I used my thread tool and I opend the thread. All but one of the braided lines that you see are real stainless steal race hose. Only the raditor hose is fake but I added thermo wrap under then the stainless steal wrap above. You can purchase the braided hose kits at summit or jcwhitney. They are universal but get the good stuff and it won't rust on you.

KIller! :thumbsup. I think I am going to upgrade my oil return line aswell cause mine recently has been splatering oil and it's burning off my downpipe. x( The top one is braided line I wonder why the bottom one wasn't? To save money perhaps on HRC's side...:wary
