LT-1 Heads
How do you install LT-1 heads on a bow tie block in SS Is welding required or is there a way to do it with a bypass hose? Thanks.

Re: LT-1 Heads
Lee, there are two plugs welded on the deck, oblong shaped. Then the pipe plugs on the front end of each head are drilled and tapped larger for water hoses. I can try to get you pictures of mine if you like.

Re: LT-1 Heads
Upper hose, which is on the driver's side. Lower hose, from the water pump, goes to the bottom of the passenger side of the radiator. I Tig welded mine together from a piece of 1 1/2" exhaust tubing, a piece of steel plate to cap off one end, and steel -10 AN fittings Tig welded to it. Those two -6 fittings on top, that are capped, are not needed.
