heres a few pics of my engine bay, merry xmas:

i realize you cant see the heater hoses too well but ill describe them as best as i can. the water pump has two small hoses off of it, the one on the left (as you are standing in front of the truck hood open) is short and runs to the coolant temp sensor then to the heater core in the back. the other hose runs from the heater core to the water pump on the right side. the lower hose connects to the water pump at the bottom and goes to the hose on the bottom right side, the upper hose goes from the thermostat neck to the upper right side of the radiator. hope this helps, this is on a 92 2.3 ford ranger.

No Hijacking intended here but..

Did your OEM air intake have alot of other stuff coming and going from it? I wanted to do something similar like you got but besides the MAF that bolts to the OEM airbox, there is alot of other crap going on.. like air that feeds into header collector and so forth. Wasn't sure how to eliminate all that. For now, I just have the drop in K-n-N and the intake tube mod.

I have a 93 2.3 I can take pics of but not sure how different it would be being a GenIII.

I will use the left house coming out of the firewall as Hose #1 and the right as hose #2.

The #1 hose goes into this sensor and than into the upper portion of the gooseneck for the upper radiator hose (right above the water pump)
I tried to gets a pic of that spot but it kept coming out blurry.

The next pic is hose #2 and that goes right into the waterpump.

Hope this helps.. a little even.

The routing (from point A to B) really isn't that difficult to figure out. They way they have it done is with a good amount of common sense. You can see in the hose 2 pic that it is routed over the alternator. Coming out of the firewall they just drop down below/next to the stock air fliter housing and then go to their prespective places.

Not sure what else you need to know.
