Pump $85
Radiator $57
Tubing 10Ft should be good

$65
Biocide $3
Coolant $5
Fans $30 Yates loons are decent and about half the cost, but as I hear the Phenoms run hot, I would stick with the Krazes.
Reservoir


All in all about $290.

Worm drives clamps from the local autoparts store, or zipties, whichever you prefer. You could save about $20 and use a t-line. They can be picked up at the local Home Depot.

I would use a BIX if you are going to use 86cfm fans, its a double row high performance rad..360 BIX...They really are at their best with 100+, but they do fine with 86 Pana to..86cfm Pana...I wouldn't want to use fans with any lower cfm on it then those Pana..A shroud will help on them...
