Radiator top outlet - fixed

After rummaging through my box of MX-5 bits i found a 90deg right angle hose connector of the right size. By cutting a couple mm off the end of the connector on the radiator and cutting down the hose to the min I was able to gain enough clearance:




If at any point in the future I see it marking the inside of the nose or I get a leak, I'll probably fit a right angle connector onto the radiator like some of the other builders have done.

It's definitely worth keeping any hose bits from the donor. Still got a few bits left:
