I am finally ready to install engine back into the basketcase of a car I bought a couple of years ago. I didnt get any work done on it last year so I made a resolution this year to finish car before my son graduates from college, lol, which is next month.
Anyway, I don't feel comfortable cutting silicone hose for water lines since the radiators are probably mounted in a slightly different position than before. I do have aluminum lines in place. Is there enough room for me to measure and install rubber hoses onto aluminum tubing with engine mounted in frame? The silicone hose is expensive, can't be found locally, so I dont want to make the mistake of cutting it before I install engine then founding out after installation that lengths are incorrect.
Thanks,
JP
