So, I was considering trying some pipe layouts using CAD, and then I thought "eh, I want something I can touch", so I did this - it's a "dimensionally correct" clearance mock-up of the exhaust area under my hood, in 1:2.54 scale. Crazy ratio, I know, but I have my reasons

In this photo we're looking from the "the front of the engine", with A/C stuff on the right hand side, and the coolant hose coming off on the left next to the cylinder 4 exhaust port:



And here it is from the other side (looking "through" the engine from behind) with the radiator and hood clearance piece attached:



Might try a few pipe layouts tomorrow...
