    help w/ coolant hosr layout

    in Nissan L6 Forum

    Posted

    Thanks heaps guys, been very help!! When you say the two (block and head ports) are the same, I envision the water flow it goes from radiator to block up to head into radiator (not including bypass system). Now having the block fittig connected (not plugged)wouldnt that take away from the water flowing into the head? Just a thought I imagine once its all full it wouldnt matter either way.

     

    also no one seems to have provided a response to my lack of heater core tap. I dont think it matters but I could be wrong

     

    Thanks a lot guys

    Guess that makes me wonder which on the heater core is inlet/out. For someone who has a tap that might matter but I have removed mine for winter until I can scrounge up a functioning one. So without a tap, the core should flow freely either way correct?

    Thanks for the indepth reply! Yea im in australia and ive yet to see a patrol run lines off the head. However my little brothers fairlady in the backyard (where I pinched the head) did. So just to confirm, I have it currently setup correctly. Now that I know which direction it flows I can just swap inlet/outlet and be good?

    I know this is a z forum however I havent had any response from the patrol forums. Basically I have an l28 block and e30 head in an mq patrol and im wanting to hook up the heater. Basically im trying to find the best way to run the hoses so I get good heat and my engine gets suffcient cooling. I have labelled pictures of my setup but not sure how to post. Basically from the water pump cool water runa down left side of block, from a t piece a hose goes over the back of the head and connects into the right side of block. The other part of the t piece continues on around the lower part of the block and up into the manifold then at the othet end of manifold connects into thermostat housing. My current setup to involve the heaters saw me taking the longer hose from the t piece and using that for heater inlet. The heater outlet then connected to the right side of the block.. same as before just with a heater core added.. problems with this is the heat isnt that warm and ive seen a raise in temp from engine and that has me worried.. any info or pictures would be great cheers guys, if someome shows me how I can add pictures to better explain
