Normally, in the coolant path, would the coolant just go into a path and stop? Or does it go up one hole and back down another? I am asking about in the factory block / heads. I haven't removed a head yet to see.

Which is still confusing, because the temp sensor for the fan is at the front of the engine. If the kit moves heat from the rear to the front, wouldn't the front coolant temp get hotter, thus increasing the amount of fan operation?

​ post #74 post #39 just some highlights.... If the fan comes on less, there is no HP gain, just less loss. If the kit balances water temps between front and rear, and one tests showed the rear getting hotter with the kit, does that mean without the kit, the front of even...

Will any data from this help others? You may be the only one with this setup...

Is that a zip tie holding one hose inside of another?

Someone should install clear tubes to watch the coolant flow with vs without the kit. Again, does the number of fan cycles mean anything if we don't know what the coolant is doing at the sensor?

Someone said the temp got higher at the rear with the kit . Someone said the fan didn't come on as much. Someone said the flow through the radiator can be less with the kit resulting in higher engine temps (which goes back to the first sentence). Maybe flow across the sensor for the fan is...

My water crossover pipe has a fitting in it for 5/8" ID hose. It just screwed in. I didnt have to modify anything.

What parts did you have to machine? It looks like hoses, fittings/couplets, and drilled plates. Do i not see something?

Why don't you just go to the nearest GM dealer and buy the blockoff plates? It is a GM motor. Part 14045274. Or, Kascar has 9 in stock at $3.49 each.

It is just s flat piece of metal that gets drilled correct? The ones bolted over the holes? Does your kit just run from one side to the other? Just like the water crossover on thd front?
