You will just need to loop it. Coolant normally flows in one and out the other, therefore, looping it still allows this, but keeps it from the heater core.
What are you going to do when driving when its cold outside? You obviously already know how to remove the whole unit, why not replace the heater core?

you dont have to loop it, you can actually just block the ports and maintain a cleaner look then the big a$$ hose wrapping around the engine. If anybody wants to argue then just think about it, honda put a valve on one side of the core to block the flow when heat was not selected so please dont anybody go there.
