Thanks for the links. 45's would be ok. A bit less pressure drop than a 90. It all depends on your install location. I found the intercooler bracket was perfect. The hoses also add a bit of support.

I'm planning on duplicating your setup, I just need to crawl out there and measure but it's 20 degrees out, starting to snow, and I have little motivation to do anything right now. I'd love to have as much as possible ready for a warm day though!
Where in Ontario are you? I have a summer home/cottage in Bright's Grove, just outside of Sarnia. Love it there!
Now I'm wondering if I should switch out to the Aeroquip hose. The Jeg's Push-loc hose is rated to 212 degrees, and I'd bet the EB sees higher oil temps than that.
I'm just north of Toronto in Newmarket. It 14*F here now. Windchill is 3*F. Yup too cold to be lying in the drive.
Magnetic plugs are a good idea but there is little to no flow at that end of the housing.
I ended up going with 5/8 X 1/2 NPT fittings and 5/8 hydraulic hose. The fittings I found at Lowes. My memory is good but not that good. I found my receipts and the hose I got at a local hydraulic outfitter. I'll see if I can find some markings on it as to pressure (300 psi) and temp rating (??). Mines been on since July 2014. I know the trans can see higher than 205*F and water temps are similar. I don't what oil temps are.
I googled the part number, I guess there's two different types of USMSHA 2G-11C hose. Some of it is rated to 100 C / 212F, and some of it is rated to 121 C / 249F. Both sound low for an oil temp rating, but if it's been fine for four years who knows. I'm sure there's a safety margin built in there.
Absolutely, all the numbers match up. I don't like those hoses or those fittings though, I'd prefer to have a setup with AN fittings so it could easily be disconnected or removed if need be. Also, I like the idea of running two filters to increase oil capacity.

Thanks for the hose info. I'm going to stop by my hydraulics supplier and inquire about the hose I have. I did a short search and most 300 psi rated hose has a burst rating of 1200 psi but like you found most are rated to 100*C.
