Run an outlet from the intake manifold by the thermostat to the heater core, then from the heater core into the radiator.

the only outlet my radiator has is the lower and upper outlet, and the barb for the catch can.

Re: electric water pump question/ heater problem

I know meziere will add heater/bypass fittings to their electric pumps at the factory for a fee (idk how much), but they don't come with them by default. Barring that, really your only other option is to have another fitting welded to your radiator tank. Most people that run electric water pumps don't have HVAC.

Re: electric water pump question/ heater problem

I machined and tapped one side of my CSI and ran a 12AN fitting to run my heater hose off of, and so far have had no problems at all.

Re: electric water pump question/ heater problem

It might void the warranty. If you could do it on the vertical side, it would be easier, but I did mine for aesthetic reasons, so it would run parralel with the top hose which is just out of the picture.
