Heater Hose Question
Currently one hose from the heater goes to the radiator and the other goes into the intake manifold. Would there be any problem in moving the hose that goes to intake manifold over to the extra port on the water pump? Thinking about putting the temperature sensor for my electric fans in the spot where the heater hose was.

Actually I don't think you can. I know big blocks use the port on teh water pump to connect to the intake port right above it. Why not use the sensor in the port on the head? This would give you the best temp. reading.

I actually have 2 ports coming out of my waterpump, one is the bypass to the intake and the other one is usually plugged. I do have plugged opening on the passenger head that I could use. I was just wondering about the other as a option.

Never seen that. Maybe someone else that has seen it can chime in on that.
