Radiator Hose Routing Intake On Top Or Bottom Df Kit Car Forum Lonny said to put the intake (drivers side) on the top of the rad to eliminate air pockets, which hampers the ability to cool efficiently. jstax disagrees and recommends have the intake on the bottom to reduce the chances of sucking in air and increase efficiency because heat rises, and the top of the rad is hotter than the bottom. I see on the build videos for the front radiator df used a total of two hoses, one from top of radiator to driver side run and another from bottom of radiator to passenger side run. then i’ve been looking a build logs and see people using total of three hoses in the reverse locations then the video.
Best Radiators Radiator Hose Diagram Goblin guru. jul 14, 2019. #6. parson green said: am believing the bypass valve has connection points for two vacuum lines. one of said lines (maroon) runs to from the bypass valve solenoid and the other (green) runs to from the supercharger. correct. The smaller radiator sits pretty low, so it would have to lose more than a little coolant, but i understand the reason the intake hose is at the bottom. the bottom hose will have to run right across in front of the 1000 degree headers. i will have to put the header wrap on now. . Re: correct heater hose routing. you are getting basically no water flow through the heater core. the nipple on the water pump can be used in place of a nipple at the top of the radiator tank but not in conjuction with it. that nipple is on the suction side of the water pump. so what you are doing is sucking water from the bottom of the. Imo, do not loop the egr coolant hose bypass. use block off caps plugs. this will take full advantage of your egr delete and direct more cooling to the intercooler. why bypass a large% of your coolant pressure volume right back too the radiator when it could be put to better use cooling the intercooler in high load high ambient temperature.

Thanks. the routing is usually hot water from the front of the intake manifold through a 5 8" hose to the bottom of the heater, then 3 4" hose from the top of the heater back to the water pump. you can run 5 8" coming back if you have a valve or some kind of restriction in the hose going to the heater. If you study the aim, the heater hose "t" is set at a 45* angle so the hoses going forward go in the correct top bottom position. at the heater core the lower hose routes outboard and up over the top hose (at the "t") and that gets that hose away from the exhaust manifold at the rear. reply like. 11 26 2021 | 10:26 pm.
