I had to make the hose as short as possible before the elbow. ( cut 1/4" or so. hose on the inlet). The lock bolt on the brace rub the hose but it is very minimal and doesn't cause any problems. You may be able to cut part of the upper inlet on the radiator to the lip and shorten the hose as muchas posible to the elbow to give you an extra 1/4" and may be all you need. Don't know but with your pulley set up, but I was considering having to do this if mine didn't fit.
