I’m dealing with the coolant bypass problem right now, do you think I could get away with using the old school pump without drilling the bypass hole in the block but instead just drill the holes in the thermostat?

Have you heard anything about the timing set rubbing the old style timing cover when adding a double roller timing chain set to the vortec? I had to tap on the inside of the cover so it would clear

@8luggarage This was a budget build, The only thing I spent $ On was the ram jet GM Camshaft that being said, I went with a single timing chain. That's good to know, I've heard stories about double timing chains hitting the cover. Maybe it best to go single. BTW, check out the installed video I just uploaded

Definitely drill the holes in the t-stat. Check out my heater hose bypass video That is an external bypass, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ld6Ti9anztPRY40.htmlsi=MBZfDDIjKtlIy1QR If you are planning on blocking off the The holes going to the heater hoses you can drill about 6 x 3/16 Holes in the t-stat. What is the block going in ? Do you want the heater to work? If so, do you have a heater control valve on your heater hose?
