Default Quick question about heater hose's

If I'm not running a heater core can i just plug the outlet on the head, and also the back water pipe?

Back in the day when i DD the car I just looped the heater hose outlet inlet together on the motor....it worked but not trying to do that this time.

Also, is this battery location cool? as within rules? figured it was a nice spot and it fit well in that location, and I've seen them bolted on the firewall before figured this would be no different.



Thanks advance for any help guys.

i just have the 2 hoses and a gutted Tstat. Battery stuff is never an issue unless its relocated to inside the car where you need a box. As long as its secure...your good.
