Reply to "Thermostat By-pass Plate"

jon3613Member

I didn't have an over-heating problem, this project started as a leaking orginal water pump, dated radiator and orginal fans that stayed "on" all the time. The new aluminum water pump I selected has the port for the by-pass. I didn't think to try a wrecking yard for the by-pass plate.(engineer out of control) I thought from the past posts that it was a preference to use the by-pass plate.

I also used your advice to make a custom shaped pipe to correct the coolant tank/pipe mismatch. I used 1 1/4" copper to fabricate it, but it substitutes the standard elbow in front of the oil pan.
Thanks for the help.
