|
|
Hey guys
I'm working on upgrading to a serpentine setup currently. My old waterpump has a hose on top that runs to one side of the heatercore, my new one doesn't. The other side of the heatercore connects to the front of the intake manifold.
Can i run this hose that used to go to the top of the waterpump to the back of the intake or the radiator instead? or is this waterpump unusable?
also, does someone have a coolant flow diagram? this would help me tons.

Your new pump doesn't have a plug that you can remove and put a nipple in? _________________ A redline a day keeps the carbon away! |

nope. it has a few holes in it but they are about the girth of a pencil and aren't tapped out for a nipple.
I'm thinking of hooking the hose up to the top of my radiator, there is a block off up there. I'll try and post a pic or 2 later for more clarification

Intake to heater core. Heater core to Rad or Water pump. _________________ A redline a day keeps the carbon away! |
