Does the install require the removal of the front fascia or is there enough room to work around it?

No need to take off the bumper. Just need to raise it up enough to lower the belly pan. Very simple!

Any suggestions for cleaning the timing covers? I just assumed the aluminum from the road salt permanently wore like this.
Some metal polish compound and TLC will take care of them for ya.

Thanks, Alan. I just picked up the blue hose kit. Now looking for clamps to match them. I guess I would need 8 clamps total? Also do you happen to remember the correct sizes for the Earl's clamps?

Thanks Blue.. I'll give it a shot.

J - You only need 7 clamps total. 4 for the two radiator hoses and then only three for the reservoir tank as one of the hoses is just an overflow hose and just hangs down at the bottom of the engine bay. If you follow the stock hoses with a flashlight you'll see what I'm talking about.
