Re-thinking the plumbing options, Chevy 292, Offy intake. Once the T-stat opens, Does the water pump bypass continue to move enough water to provide intake heat?
I was thinking about using the water pump bypass as a loop, from t stat housing>to intake floor>to water pump bypass return; Rather than returning to the heater core suction hose- Just trying to shorten up some of the hose runs.
My fear is that once the t stat opens, there is not enough flow in bypass loop.
