I didn't like routing the hose over fan shroud see pictures below. now to find something other than the screw clamps.

I like it but, if the radiator gets really hot can it warp the hose?

I don't think it would get that hot. Anyone got any ideas what to replace the screw clamps with? Thinking about the old wire clamps or maybe some of the plastic ones similar to tie wraps but not sure where to get them.

Looks good tep.

I've thought about changing the worm drive clamps on mine to the OEM style spring clamps just so it all matches under the hood.
