Radiator Cooling System Routing Help Ls1tech Camaro And Firebird These are your transmission fluid oil coolant lines. on a 4l60e, they are placed one on top of the other or "two tall." the bottom line is the "feed line" which runs out of the transmission into the factory in tank cooler inside the radiator. the feed line connects to the radiator at the bottom of the passenger's side of the radiator. You might need about 2 1 2 gallons of 50 50 mix. keep an eye on the small coolant crossover pipe. when you see coolant coming out of it stop, reconnect the hose and clamp. this step helps to eliminate the majority of the air by the crossover pipe. the pipe is the highest point of the engine cooling system. recheck the coolant level on the radiator.
Radiator Cooling System Routing Help Ls1tech The lsx has the steam line on the front of the heads (standard flow cooling). and gen i sbc have the intake flow coolant. steam lines were a requirement when intake manifolds stopped flowing coolant to prevent heat soak. this is the diagram from car craft (wrong); and correct diagram, notice the differences;. 1) clamp the lower radiator hose at it's lowest point. 2) disconnect the upper radiator hose at the radiator. 3) fill the radiator thru the fill cap until water pours out the open upper radiator inlet. 4) hold the upper radiator hose up and back fill the block. 5) hook up the upper radiator hose. 6) fire her up. Run coolant crossovers to just below that position on the radiator tank, many radiators from ls powered factory vehicles already have a nipple here. this will allow the radiator cap to relieve the steam pressure buildup as it builds and reaches the rating on the cap. ls swap radiators commonly do not have this location below the radiator cap. 1507 posts · joined 2006. #5 · may 12, 2014. yes gen 3 4 engines are nont reverse cooled. coolant goes to teh block 1st, then the heads. the gen 2 lt1 (iron and alum head), 1996 97 lt4 and 94 96 4.3 v8 vee eight rpo l99 are all reverse flow cooled. heads get coolant 1st, then the block.

The 20795 upper radiator hose needed to be 14 1 2" from center to center of waterpump outlet and radiator inlet. this one was a couple inches short and the diameter is 1.25" on each end. the continental 61792 that don hutton mentioned somewhere in the forum is suppose to be 14.5" center to center but the diameter is the same 1.25" which is a.
