This is a great and reliable upgrade, my question is for those that go the PW hose upgrade route, will there be supports that bolt to any factory locations to avoid vibrations and possibly wear over time especially behind the engine?
Hardware and line separators are included to secure the PS hoses to the engine. Instead of mounting them at the subframe, we’ve moved everything up. This allowed a cleaner install while still providing plenty of spots to secure the kit via rubber isolated clamps.
Looks like a good kit. Sucks that GM is abandoned the ls4 and vehicle.

perfect, that covers it!
I know your build is race oriented, is it alright to run no steering cooler on a road car?
Absolutely. In fact the majority of w-body cars never had a cooler. It was an option on the LS4 cars. Came standard on things like 9C1 police cars.
would the line work with the oem tensioner? any modification for that?
Negative. This kit would interfere with the OEM tensioner and belt routing.
