I really don't want to spend any money on this since I am pulling the motor shortly for a swap. I am deleting the entire heat/ A/C system. Is there a Pep Boys / Auto Zone hose that will join the two?

Thanks for any help!!

 

block them off!!! or connect them.. blocking off is cleaner

With caps? Where can I get them?
Can I connect the 2 using the existing hoses?
Thanks

 

Run a hose from where the #4 hose connects to the block and where the #6 hose connects to the block.

 

or go to autozone they sell the cap that you can push over the ends and clamp down...

I'd be a little more nervous about that ....

 

the only problem with putting a hose between the pipes comming out the motor is that hot radiator fuild will flow thru it when ever your car is running.. hoses will wear out.. but than agian so could the caps.. the smartest thing to do would be to weld the holes shut..

Is the "cap" metal or plastic? Be cause a banded silicone radiator hose is probably less likely to corode or melt.

 

Partsamerica.com = Advance Auto Parts? If so, didn't know that.

They're only $3. May have to get a set. I'm going to try to rig the OEM hoses first. I won't be driving the car anymore. Just need to crank it to move back in the garage / make sure everything is good after I do the wire tuck

 

find two extra bolts that are slightly bigger in diameter than the hose and thread them into the hoses. Works fine and wont just fall out like the caps do.
