Re: Samco coolant hoses from GB
I feel your pain. I just installed mine tonight, what I thought would be a half hour job that I would get done while waiting for my oil to dran. Turned in to a two and a half hour pain in the a$$. Had to trim it three times then my AC was hitting the clamp, then I finally got it adjusted so that the AC just barely was touching the duct. I left it at that, the AC will just wear that little bit of duct away. Glade the coolant hoses seem to fit better, I will tackle that next month when I flush the coolant. My intake is not stock either I have an API ram air set-up.

Re: Samco coolant hoses from GB
FYI, I installed my coolant hoses this last weekend. The job was a total pain, but the hoses fit just fine, no trimming required. However the ones that connect to the "T" thing and the upper radiator hose are a REALY REALLY tight fit over the tubes. They are a real pain to get on, but nothing too major. On the bottom of the car they fit nice and easily.

Re: Samco coolant hoses from GB
I don't know why that one clamp on the upper hose isn't black, but I painted it real quick.
