Little bit of an update, I finally got 'round to installing the Samco hoses. Had a bit of an interference issue with the upper hose at the battery tray.
Fixed it with a 1.25" O.D. Aluminum el I had lying around from a blowoff valve project for another car. Cut off the excess leg length and had the local race shop roll beads on the ends.
I'll probably send these pics to Samco and suggest they add some more bend to this area, instead of cutting diagonally across the battery tray. The OEM hose does the same thing, and I realize that Samco just copied it, but they must have tightened it up some, because after installing the Samco hose, the battery tray and the battery became very much a pain to R&R.
The Aluminum el came from Woolf Aircraft.

You can get a Stainless 1.25" el for a few less $.

I have to install a boost gauge, water temp, voltage, oil pressure. Along with a new radiator, coolant tank and some more love.... But regardless WTF, I thought I installed these late. It took me like 6 months...:blackeye:
