    onward with the plumbing need to reduce twice to get to the radiator size now polished and assembled and bottom one and this is lurking actually, outside of one bracket, it shouldn't be terrible - just clip what I don't need

    after a bit of research, it all went back together then the intercooler I got a 'deal' on this (meaning only about twice what the parts would cost alone) but this is for a JK with a supercharger - so some connections required but it all, basically, bolts in place you'd think I'd have tubing...

    back to it. $200 later and the right belt one that works (neither of which came from Quickdraw) but note how very little space there is between white marks? that white mark is where the tensioner is when no belt is on this is the correct belt installed - note the white mark on the tensioner...

    a bite at a time the adapter to the PS pump and connected and then the almost right belt.... I ordered the one size smaller - this will work but it will lose tension the moment it starts stretching installed thinking this is where the filter will go.... and classic, it works but lost one...

    back is done Quickdraw sent a 100" belt, this is 102 1/4" belt and too short. Going 1" larger.... downside is those green belts are $100 each so will probably get another 'cheap' belt to verify length
