Would this still work if I ran the hoses to the back of my exhaust wherer I have another place I can remove the plug and put in another fitting?

cool will do that during this rebuild.

IMHO This thread contains some very bad information and mis-direction. There are way too many variables to the question "Rear Crossover on intake manifold". Let's assume that a BBC is the motor in question. Variables:
1) Block generation 2) Head Model/manufacturer 3) Head gasket manufacturer 4) Crossover or recir pump 5) Any modifications to any of the above What I see in the thread is a "cookie cutter" approach to water circulation and distribution. Simply does not apply here. |
Ok, I have been reading this thread and I'm thinking about doing it. Gen4 427 .60 over AFR 265CNC heads, 10.5:1 comp. Stainless marine GenIII exhaust, Weiland Stealth intake, No circ pump, but a crossover with bypass, steam holes drilled? Engine has yet to be painted or installed, Should I go ahead and do the rear crossover with a T, just in case I have pressure or steam issues, I'm all about doing what I can to extend the engine life, and reliability.

All it needs to be is a dump for steam Air pockets to get out small lines -4 if you go to big then the t-sat will not work right if using one.

I installed a rear crossover but i ran my #6 lines to the front of the intake manifold. I also have a crossover with a bypass and a 140 thermostat with 3-3/32 holes in it. Engine water temp. stays right about 140 and water pressure at cruse about 18lbs.
