Remote mounted water pump fittings? where do i get fittings to run from the holes in the block to the WP? does someone make some kind of fitting that has an AN fitting on it?
i'll be putting this in the car to free up some room around the front of the block

never mind, found what i was looking for
When I posted the initial pictures of my radiator location and after the Autorama I have had a hundred questions:
Where is your radiator?
Will it work that low?
Where is your water pump?
How will you attach the -12 hose to the motor mount?
etc.. etc..
So here you go!
This is how the radiator is mounted. It is tucked up under the front facia.
Clean and hidden out of the way.
I do not have a standard water pump. I have a Meziere remote water pump and here is how I will attach the -12 lines from the pump under the frame to the motor mount.
I can mount the radiator that low because I got a Meziere expansion tank. As you can see, the tank has the filler cap on it and it will be located higher than the radiator. It also comes with -4 bungs for the head steam vents.
None of this stuff is custom! It is all on the shelf at Meziere.
Thanks and Good Luck!

Depends on how you want to do it. I did mine the inexpensive way. I purchased -16 Male Bungs from Summit and welded them onto the motor plate. You can use either -12 or -12 but I recommend -16. There are plenty of pics over in my mustang thread.
Rereading, I'd add a 2nd fitting no the top and use 2 feed/2 return.
