Just purchased the one size fits all power steering pressure hose for my 65 convertible with A/C offered by multiple manufacturers at 34 1/2 inches overall length. The original hose which finally burst last fall is approximately 29 inches. What's 5 1/2 inches (insert your own joke here) difference you might think but this is a heavy hose which normally is routed above the driver side exhaust manifold. I can make it work but I figured somebody must have dealt with this issue before.

Any suggestions on the best way to route the hose without interfering with the other lines or coming too close to the manifold? Thoughts and photos always appreciated!

Thank you...
