    i used a corvette oil cooler that bolts on the block under the oil filter, and the oil filter threads onto it. it has 2- 1/2" hose barbs on it for coolant in/out. i have coolant in attached to the block drain in front of it. currently i have the return attached to where the petcock used to go in the radiator. i'm thinking this isn't a good way to do it, as the coolant temp is no longer regulated. i was thinking that it should be teed' into the line for the heater that returns to the top of the water pump. any thoughts?

    What about taping back into the radiator, or the return hose?
