    Recommend angle top left 10 degrees toward center of engine. Plug bottom right connection, add 90 degree elbow under the tank pointing back to LHside. Cut Gates 22080 to fit, No hassle!

    Pictured are two Ofy 4 bbl water outlets. I modified the water neck turned to the left. Recent discovery of a Gates 21341 Hose helps either water neck work for the left hand radiator hose connection I recommend.
