This is a great site and I will spend a lot of time studying the postings.

Have Fun Roger and Welcome

I would replace ALL Original Coolant Hose Clamps also........Aligning the Hose Clamps so the tightening screw can be easily reached by socket or screw driver. You may have to use a razor blade to cut lengthwise on some hoses after removing the Stock Hose Clamp to remove the Original Coolant Hose. I use a bit o Permatex on the inside ends of ALL New Coolant Hoses.
