I guess my concerns were that both lines can't push coolant into the heater
core, but since you've got it working that must not be an issue. After
looking mine over again, one goes in the pump, one in the intake, and the
short one. So the big difference is the by-pass. I take it that it is
necessary to have with a "normal" setup?

Love your web site. Great information and one very cool car.

Hi Ron,

I have a short w/p.  My understanding with the little hose from the pump to
the intake is that it's just a by-pass.  When I bought my Stewart pump they
also sold me a modified thermostat, basically they drilled some holes in it.
Because of the holes, the little hose was no longer needed.  These days I'm
using a restrictor disc in place of a thermostat so the little hose still
isn't needed.

Yes the passenger side of the pump has a heater hose, it's easy to see on
the engine details page.  I don't know for sure if the way I have the heater
hoses routed is the "correct" way, but the heat works and the engine stays
cool.

Herb I was looking at the pictures on your site and have a question about
the direction fluid flows though the engine. I see that it appears that you
have one heater hose going directly to the pump and one to the intake. On
mine (as a lot are) both hoses go into the intake. I hate that short hose
(from the intake to pump) and would love a way to clean all that up.

Also is that a short or long water pump?

A critical factor in the health and behavior of your (non 4l60e)
transmission is the TV cable adjustment. This is an EXCELLENT page
describing the adjustment and behavior of that cable:
