rear intake manifold coolant reroute note
some of you guys put coolant lines off the rear of the intake manifold to keep out the hot spots off the rear of the heads where air pockets form.
i did some rerouting on coolant lines today and was wanting to restrict these lines which are 3/8" so they wouldn't flow much coolant, just let the air pass.
i took out the fittings which were 3/8" npt x -6 flare and drilled the inside pipe portion and threaded for 1/8" npt and installed brass plugs and redrilled to 1/8" for the restriction.
works good so far.
