Rich - Maybe it needs to have some surgery. Took mine partially apart to do a few mods - i.e. get rid of that Cool Flex top hose, change to a 4 hole phenolic spacer, move the alternator to the right side and much lower, add an MSD Cap-Adapt to stop ignition cross firing and a few other odds and ends - - - and polish the aluminum:



The weather this summer and fall has been so crummy/wet, every piece of (billet) aluminum has some fusty crud on it.

Randy, between you and Don Shillady, sighhhhhh

I moved my alt down low when I did the engine transplant in `03 just kept welding pieces of scrap together so I had something to bolt to, then did measurements and made the brackets out of stainless tubing and alum bar stock, the store bought one never even got close to working...Why did you remove the cool flex....?
