In hindsight, I should of bought this toyjet adapter:

But instead, I got this overpriced Renegade Hybrids cooling kit:

The return is easy because the electric water pump has two inlet ports, so each pipe has a place to go. However, the supply coolant is slightly different. I guess I'll find some coolant Y pipe to merge both coolant hoses together, which raises another question all together. Shouldn't the coolant hoses be matched in size (length) so that water flow doesn't favor one circuit vs the other? The toyjet adapter solves this problem, really wish I bought that instead.

Renegade also sucks for not giving you any instructions. I received a box of parts which took many hours to figure out what is what.

On a side note, does anyone happen to know what alternator to use with the Renegade Hybrid alternator relocation kit?

Tim - I have that new Renegade water block that's essentially like the ToyJet adaptor. I may not need it. PM me if you'd maybe be interested.
As to the alternator, I had to replace the Renegade alternator adaptor that I got with the kit with "the black one" (no part #, just the name!). I have an LS 3 so I'm not sure about anything but that engine. On the specific alternator, I needed one from 1998 - 2002 Camaro.
Hope this helps.
Chris
