coolant tube?

[EclipticalGS]

I did a 6-bolt swap, 7-bolt head, 7-bolt oil pump mod, etc. I am getting ready to drop the motor in, but my 7-bolt motor had this tube to the block, this 6-bolt motor doesnt have this tube.... So where does this go now if anywhere?? what was it?

It's the tube under the freeze plug to the left.

It looks like it is your coolant feed for the T-28 turbo, 6bolts get their feed off the lower coolant housing. I would just cap it or find a plug for it.

I agree, I have a 6 bolt block with a 14b, the coolant return line goes to the coolant rail from the pump. this could help

So it was the coolant supply to my turbo, and now i should run off my waterpipe? Well im still using my 7-bolt waterpipe.

Yes it is your coolant supply for the t-28 turbo, what turbo are you going to be running, a T-28 or 14b? If its the t-28 then you just use it for the turbo if you are going 14b or something similar, you will need a 6bolt water pipe and 6 bolt lower coolant housing(where the radiator cap it at(but the lower part)) and necessary 14b coolant lines. More information would be nice as well. 6bolt head? turbo?

6-bolt block, 7-bolt oil pump, 2g head. I figured it out already though, the tube is off my 16G and ran into the block. Well it doesnt anymore so im going to run a line from the turbo and T it into my coolant return pipe from the OFH coolant tube.

Glad you figured it out
