Do’t like using the word ASSUME as we all know what it stands for but I suspect that this hose is cut to use as shown.

Just noticed in that picture I hope he added clamps no those hoses?

You assumed correctly.

I would assume they got clamps on it.

Kit comes with 4 of these, 2 connect to small radiator, where are other two used?

 

[Sebnuts]

On the LNF, 2 of them go into the intercooler

 

[Jareth]

Thanks, Or with mine they are extra, mine is supercharged.

 

[Jareth]

I don’t want to assume by this one picture, that the fan mounts on the top surface, can others confirm?

 

[Robinjo]

Yes. Or at least I mounted mine on the top of the heat exchanger.

Check this out. I asked all of these questions. There are some extra pictures also in the https://dfkitcar.com/forum/index.php?threads/helpful-photo-albums.1754/

This connection seems a little flimsy, hose is way loose on a small potion of the brass fitting. Clamp needs to be really torqued down to take up slack.

Is this the way it is?

 

[Ark :D]

Yep. Clamp 'er down hard.

 

[Sebnuts]

Is this the way it is?

That's how mine were. I didn't like it, ended up getting rid of it and doing a rear mount instead.

 

[Robinjo]

I dumped those tubes as well and ran heat exchanger coolant lines all the way down the tunnel instead. I used reinforced nylon tubes for my whole HX setup.

 

[Jareth]

Does this L shaped hose end go somewhere or is it just a vent hose?

Perhaps it goes to the overflow tank?

 

[Rauq]

It's not designed to go anywhere. If you overfill the fluid reservoir it'll drip out of there.

 

[Jareth]

Thanks, It had such a clean cut on the end I thought that might be the case, meaning didn’t look like something I cut.

I put a hose on mine and just ran it down below the engine, that way if it does spit up a little it would end up on the ground and not somewhere else in the engine bay.

 

[Jareth]

Yes, Thanks, that would be the plan.

 

[comegetjoe]

Yes, Thanks, that woludicrous be the plan.

*bless you

 

[Jareth]

I have tried searchung but not finding anything very clear on heat exchanger hose routing?

Looking for the hose routing of what number goes to what?

Just cut out the 2nd exchanger and dual pass, which I think you should do at this point.
