In my ss-truck after removing the lines i put the clips directly back. when it comes to reassembling u can click the lines in the radiator without removing the clips.
Great tip, didn't realize you could just put them back in like that. I thought about putting them back on but didn't want to deal with trying to get them off again as one of them shot across the garage floor when I first took them off and I spent 15-20 minutes looking for the dam thing...

Thanks for the compliment SSooner. Unfortunately I did sell the car back in May to a member of the Camaro5 community who is putting it to good use. Just the right car at the wrong time, wife couldn't/wouldn't drive stick, four kids and a 2x2 coupe didn't work, and the cam was a little too much for me to deal with in all the bumper to bumper traffic I find myself in from time to time traveling into the DC area for work.

Luckily I held onto my beater (13yr old 99 Dodge Intrepid 173k miles) and drove it until just a few weeks ago when I gave in to the temptation for power and picked up a 2012 Challenger SRT8 Automatic. I won't be modding it for another year or so until I have it totally paid for but I am friggin itching big time to put a Nitrous Outlet Plate Kit on it with a 100-150 wet shot with a dedicated fuel system spraying some C16. For the time being, stock is fine as the car is a beast. When the time comes, I hope to do a similar write-up on the Nitrous install I do from the system design, to the install, to the tuning, unfortunately it will be over in the MOPAR forums...
