"could I pull the plug I see on the top of the water pump and somehow plumb in a connector? Where does the water go in/come out with a power flush? DO I have to pull the thermostat?"
In general, yes. Do you have something coming off the thermostat housing that would be used for a heater hose? You could pull the t-stat, but it would be pretty messy. Small block Chevy, you say? You should be able to go the parts store and get a t-stat housing with a heater bung fo short money. Har to say from here with no pix.
