Looks good though
36"... gotta do what you gotta do. And that's the upper hose, so if anything it aids in cooling LOL

I made all the aluminum stuff under there myself, the radiator support, side shrouds and the MSD/relay table were all custom.

This winter I want to chop all the wires out and do a wire tuck. There's so much unnecessary wiring under the hood left over from stock that it's sick... and then there's a wire somewhere that I cut that I shouldn't have, because my headlights no longer function. I ended up just cranking them up and wiring the low beams to my accessory fuse panel. Not a huge deal since I plan to go flush mount when I do the bodywork.
