water neck again:
the bracket that holds the top of the radiator to the grille. I'm going to need to weld another bracket to that one to triangulate to the inner fender. originally there were 2 angle steel brackets that did the same thing, but the corners of the radiator are in the way now, so I need to fab new ones:
you can see that the water pump has two outlets. one feeds the bottom of the radiator, the other feeds the water inlet at the bottom of the block.
I made this y connector to split the output from the water pump between the two inlets. it might've been moot, as I may end up running everything in dash 16 AN hose and using an -AN T fitting, but I have to run that by the boss. the fittings and hose to do that will be close to $350.
I've started the search for molded hoses I can re purpose, I think I've found a few, but they're all $30, and we need 4, so even standard hoses are looking like $120+
this is a stock engine compartment:
