Your motor might need a bypass hose from the intake to the water pump.
Like a big block has.

Does your intake and water pump Have the right ports for the bypass.
Thanks Geezer, that pain is in progress here. Im hoping that 45 degree fitting will line up decent so I can use the hose I bought. The hose that came with the intake was just a straight one with little chance of connecting to the long water pump I have. I guess I could loop it like a pigs tail and get it to connect.
