Re: Heater Hose Ideas

That may be your simplest and best solution. Some times those fittings don't want to come out and guys have broken the manifolds trying to get them out.

You can get them at Autozone or O'Reilly's and probably any other parts house but need to know if you just need 5/8 or you need a 5/8 and a 3/4 cap https://www.autozone.com/cooling-hea...ing-bypass-cap

They often sell them to cap the heater return on GM radiators that have the return like from the heater to the radiator and the rig has the return line going to the water pump when you buy an aftermarket radiator that fits several applications.
