[quote=tkb289;1143633]Time for an update.
Made some good progress lately, but there is lot's more to do. Not sure at this point when I will be ready to finally drive the car, depends on how much time I can get to work on it. This part is a lot of fun, have been getting help and advice from my sons & car buddies, and making lots of trips to the local parts store.
It took a while, but finally came up with a way to plumb in the heater that has the hoses laying on top of the motor and also has a place for the water temperate gauge sending unit. There are a lot of different ways to achieve the same goal, we will see how this setup performs.
The overall setup.
I was hoping someone could help with advice on water supply to the heater. My cars not on the road yet but I have been thinking about installing a heater valve which I have that's exactly the same as tkb289 has used in the picture. I don't know a lot about how cars work but does it mean that when the valve is off there is water sitting in the remaining line that just sits there until the valve is opened? Would it be wise to install a three way valve that returns the water back into the system through the heater return hose? I may be completely off key here but I thought I'd ask!
Regards.
