Re: Removing AC From Cosworth Supercharged NC, Alternator to

Morning Brian.
I have couple questions about the installation.
1) I am quite lost with the "Tree" adapter. IMO, we don't really need that. The header hard line can connect directly to T stat housing upper exit. Then the throttle coolant tube can also route directly from engine head to throttle body. The "tree" adapter seem like am "extra" piece of unnecessary parts in the whole coolant network. Did you use that "tree"?
2) I have problem with the hoses came with the kit. Especially when dealing with the connections to the front mount inter-cooler. The hoses are too big. Seem to me it will not seal even with hose clamp. How did you deal with that?
Those are my problem so far. Next stage will be dropping the supercharger in place. Hopefully everything will be nice and smooth.
Thanks for any input.
