You act like it’s hot out there lol. Bumper turned out killer. Sorry the dealer stamped one didn’t work out. That’s an insane price on that build!!!! Nice job
Both of them i had to cut and make work, but i will explain what i did. For the top hose, i used the stock 2001 Silverado hose, but the gates brand because it is only $16. This one: a.co/d/iDLNV2l I had to heat and stretch it a little to get it on my upper radiator bung, and then about halfway or so, i cut it in half and added the steam port adapter, which is this: a.co/d/5MeWlBw And for the bottom hose, it isnt a perfect fit, and you do have to cut it, but its as close as i could get. I used this one: a.co/d/dKyympL Also, i didnt know this until later, but you CAN get different thermostat housing that change the angle the lower hose comes off the water pump, so that is an option too.
I used a champion radiator in my blue truck, but for this red truck, i got one from blackhorse racing on ebay and it seems to be the same exact thing. This is the one i got: www.ebay.com/itm/175079199783 As far as throttle cable, i utilized the stock LS throttle cable bracket and used a 36" braided throttle cable from amazon: www.ebay.com/itm/175079199783 This is the gas pedal i used, but you can also use one from a 67-72 C10 or companies like Lokar make them that are really expensive: www.ebay.com/itm/314216808456
