This might help in keeping the intake tube as cool as possible......exhaust wrap, plus if you're not into polished aluminum look it tones down the shininess of the tube with a few colour options.

Not sure I'd do that, wouldn't it heat soak and then take longer to cool? The heat reflective tape, the gold or silver work better at reflecting the heat?

Great looking build Brian! You've through quite a bit of life's trials and tribulations during this process. Enjoyed reading your thread. Way to keep at it!

Lower hose ACDelco 24403L trim to fit.

Upper hose pretty sure a section of this will work. Gates 22358

I went with a couple from NAPA. Looks like your radiator layout is really similar to mine. I've got part numbers and pics posted on page 11 of my build thread if it helps...Nice project, btw, been following along!

I used self etching primer on mine. Then rattle canned it matte black. Both sourced from a body shop paint supplier.
