Let me go ahead and wake this post up yet again. I am doing the same thing you've done here, but I'm trying to figure out what you did with the nipple that runs to the throttle body. I mean, I see what you did, thanks to the photo, but did you wind up welding that hole shut, or did you just slip the thermostat bypass hose over it, or what? Thanks in advance!
