-dude. the 96-98 tube is one way and the 99 and up is another. since he's a 98 stang, he CAN reuse it with NO problems at all. Can you use the new style tube, yes, but if you already have it, it CAN work and works very well.
And same goes for the alt bracket. if you use the stock one, you also still have a place to put your spark plug wires on, the newer style don't have that. and it will bolt on.
First pic shows my stock 97 tube. pic two shows my stock 97 alt bracket on a New FRPP PI intake with aluminum crossover.
And i don't cut corners, especially when the part store is a 3 min drive from my house, and i don't halfa$$ anything.

also i looked up the crank pulley bolt, says nothing about it being TTY, for the heads is does state they are TTY, though i knew that. also it says nothing about the Cam bolts being TTY. Just some FYI, nothing special.

week sport, your wrong again as a 1998 has a different coolant tube then 96/97 and 99 up. I don't know where you get your info but it's not 100% correct, end of conversation.
p.s. I never used the words "half-assed" you did, musta' struck a nerve, huh

yup, there you go
