While searching for replacement hoses for my 05 LSV I found this old thread so I thought I would share that Indmar now makes a formed metal tube replacement for the raw water pump/transmission cooler and the J pipe for the 5.7 Assault motors. The cooler tube has a lot more clearance past the alternator pulley.
Got the J pipe replacement from Bakes and the raw water/cooler replacement from Inboard Garage. Installed them today and both fit perfect.
