My idea was to the intake come down flush with the machined edge on the bottom of the head for a nice edge on push rod cover. Hogan will be making my intake. To deal with the water flow my idea was to just cover up the holes on the head and machine the thermostat housing in the end of the head. Ryan (Falconer) said that was not a good idea because the water would be to hot when it got to the front. So now my idea is to have Hogan make with the intake a way to plumb it out to a thermostat housing. Or maybe just A/N fittings to a remote thermostat? I fully appreciate all the help and the fact that nobody has made fun of me yet. This could be built by forum and we can all be a part of it.
