Re: LS Steam tube routing

On another project LS we plumbed the steam vent right into the top radiator hose via inline sensor adapter in the hose, add a 90' fitting to clean up the vent hose, two spiffy looking clamps and it works as advertised. We looked at the options and our water pump housing on our 5.3 had the integrated thermostat assembly from the factory (poor design) so if we drilled and tapped the housing would not be a salvageable core in the event it had to be pulled.
