    Yes. That's what I'm running currently. That little gremlin always seems to show the slightest bit of leaking. Dried droplets, not pints. Dont want to test the limits of the hose clamps. I've busted more than my fair share.

    You guys know anything about the cad plated steel hardware from ARP? Ordered a couple packs of nuts just in case I round off some header nuts. But didn’t even think to look into what their application might be.

    Yep. Just didnt consider it. I mean, we dont glue our radiator hoses on. But I can see why this makes sense.

    Lmao, the serp is even more fun.... All the blower belt ish comes off too.
    I suggest if ur doing one based on its condition, do both.

    If just swapping the blower belt for smaller pulley, disregard unless the serp needs replacing.

    I put it in the upper just to keep an eye on it to make sure that the sensor stays clean.

    2 belts dont take up much room, neither does a small extinguisher.
