So. Much. Blue. haha. Idk how I feel about all the blue, but it’s very clean nonetheless.
So i have a stupid question , im trying to figure out what i do with a coolant hose.
There is a smaller diameter coolant exit coming off the block just to the left and below the large inlet for the top radiator hose, im trying to figure out what i do with this outlet as i have eliminated my heat.
Thanks guys i appreciate the help! and compliments!!
and yes oooooooh soooooooo bllllluuueeeeeeee!!! lol im glad you like the work , i know not everyone will like color scheme.

love the blue buy the way.
can you post a picture of your radiator? i can machine you a custom part to block the hole if needed. I am a machinist. another option would be to take it to a radiator repair shop and have them weld/solder a bung in its place?
at work so i couldnt get the best pics but heres a couple similar ones.
its the port on the side of the head that actually has the black hose connected in the picture…
It normally goes to the heater core inside but i no longer have this so not sure if i just cap it or run a hose from that to where the other heater core hose would go.
I think you’ll want to run a hose from one to the other it will be like bypassing the heater core. Totally ok thing to do
ok cool sounds like ill do the bypass
seems like the best and most painless option man.
that coolant hose you’re showing us goes to the throttle body i believe not directly but to one of the ports that goes around back into the throttle body itself and the other end of that same hose goes to the head were you marked (C) which is in the front left to the head and then there is the one that goes from the valve cover in2 your air intake , you get what am talking about now .
Coolant Bypass pics
(click on images to enlarge)here you go … in case you want to bypass the coolant lines from your throttle body
i apologize, i appreciate your help but i wasnt clear enough in my description. Thats not my actual motor just a pic i found. i have a b18a1 and its the hose next to the larger hose towards the fron of the engine , those arent my markings in the pic, they were already there. But again thanks for helping out
any updates man?
some what , just little stuff. Got the dashboard and all the panels back in, finished wiring alarm. Got both of the 3rd gen integra leather seats bolted up, only thing left to do is finish the side skirts, front lip, rear bumper and adjust the valve lash, replace windshield and put the exhaust on.
I will post pics once im done but been really busy because i have to move in a month
wow sounds like your making some good headway! i look forward to seeing the pictures sounds like things are going well at least.

Thanks again everyone. So im having a slight problem right now, i try to start the car but when i do the starter engages and touches the flywheel but doesnt actually turn it. I reran a ground ( 0 gauge ) to the trans and also ran one directly to the battery and even had a nice battery charger with a start feature so i know its not the battery but still it engages but no turning.
So not sure what to do.
BAD starter?
Needs more grounds to the engine?
anyone have any clue?
I dont have any money right now to get a new starter to test it but hopefully you guys have some input
