1.5" exhaust tubing with radiator hoses to connect to the engine and to the radiator, I run typical antifreeze mix, electric fans with shroud...its not too bad to do, just make sure when you fill it, you do it systematically, pm me when you get to that point, mine worked on the first try with the above configuration.
