In this setup you get a thermostat housing (thermostat included), and 2 head fittings. Each one has -12 ORB ports as well as 3/8 NPT ports. The driver's side fitting has a -8ORB port with a plug so you can burp the system just like Ford intended. The thermostat housing comes with a Meziere fitting with either a 1 1/2" barb (matches the upper hose), -16 AN, or -20 AN. This housing has the bypass holes built in so no more drilling the thermostat. Also it has a extra 1/2NPT port so you can plumb a extra line (I recomend returning your head cooling mod here).
Here you can see the most common way to route the lines. This setup DOES NOT come with the -12 fittings or hose. And this picture is a early non anodized setup. They are all anodized black at this time. $450 and thermostat of your choice. Shipping included for the contiguous 48 states. ![]() Lower T manifold. The top is a 3/4" hose barb that runs to the degass tank. Choose the size fittings you want for the sides. (All 96-04 4v engines have 1 3/4" at the radiator and 1 1/2" at the oil cooler) $160 Shipped in the U.S. Improved Racing Lower Hose. 1 3/4" at both ends. At this time I only recommend using this with the stock oil cooler. And requires the hose to be cut to fit. Includes a Gates Hose Adapter P/N 26391 to reduce to 1 1/2" for the stock oil cooler. $110
