Hose Relocate Kit for Maggie Install w/Coil-Engine Covers

I am waiting on delivery of my Magnacharger and I want to have all the needed parts ready when it arrives. I also ordered a pair of Roto-Fab / Lingenfelter coil-engine covers with the boxed ends (see photo). Roto-Lab told me that to use these covers, I will have to relocate the heater hoses and maybe the fuel lines.

Here is my question: If you have a Magnacharger and these engine covers, did your Maggie kit come with necessary material to properly reroute your hoses? Or will I have to buy a Hose Relocation Kit from ADM or TechAFX (see photo)?

I have the maggie, those covers as well...I did not use the relocation kit for the heater hoses.

It works without the kit but certainly looks cleaner with the kit!

The one thing that you will have to do to use those covers is relocate the reservoir from the passenger side to the the drivers side.

Here's mine with the reservoir relocated but the heater hoses are still in place.

I want to get this kit myself since it does clean up the hoses! Fuel lines do not get relocated, only disconnect and then reconnect to get thru the cover (passenger side).

Did you get your covers from Roto-Fab or Lingenfelter? How well made were the mounting brackets.

Glad to hear that because I also ordered mine from Roto-Fab and yours are drop dead gorgeous. They are in the paint shop today and I should see them next week.

I ordered the Hose Relocate Kit from TechAFX.

Gotta love your chrome/polished Maggie housing. I didn't dig deep enough to pull out the additional 9 Benjamin Franklins for that, but seeing yours makes me wish I should have.

Can you provide additional details on the reservoir relocate? I am not sure which reservoir are we talking about. Can you point it out on your photo? Did Magnacharger provide new mounting hardware for this?

Thanks for your input.

Alfie
