    worked on the radiator hoses, my radiator was said to be set up for a ls motor, but it came with 1.50 inch hose at the top and not the 1.25 the ls water pump uses

    I ended up deleting the power steering and went with a manual steering rack
    and I'm going with a electric power steering set up, that's inline

    the belt ended up being 103.25 inches long




    here's a pic of my computer and fuse panel
    its on mdf right now, but I have some alloy that it will be mounted to before im done

    the mdf is just for mock up, so that I could figure stuff out
