Water circulation on a Chevy V8 goes from the waterpump, thru the engine block and up to the thermostat. Coolant goes out the intake, to the BOTTOM connection of the heater, out the upper connector and returns either to the waterpump or the radiator, where it is repumped by the waterpump and so on and so on.

Once it gets warm enough for the thermostat to open, then the coolant goes thru the upper hose into the radiator and so on and so on.


68speedalert, I stand corrected. That's why I love this place. Thanks for clearing that up.

Timcos, good luck with yer project. Didn't mean to steer ya wrong. I'm glad there are others here to keep ya' on the right path.
