This is the only pic i can find at the mo,i remember having trouble with the cooler to T/B pipe,i had to cut and put the extra joiner in there as it was hitting the T/B at the wrong angle,also it was hitting the oil filler neck so that was taken off cut and had a smal silicone joiner in it to give it extra clearance hope this helps.

just bought one of these kits & what an utter load of **** it is! pipes bends are no where near what they should be! had to cut the bend that comes through the wing & add an extra join, then had to bend the other side to clear cam belt cover. how do they get away with selling such crap?? its a shame because the cooler, rubber hoses and clips seem of good quality.
-Rant over lol.

managed to fit mine ok, didn't cut anything and everything fits fine, still running twin fans on radiator as well, granted its tight and i'm going to put a support in off the inlet manifold but overall thought it was a good kit.....
