I have not just bypassed my throttle body but also blocked off the radiator and tubing ports. Has anybody done this? Any ill effects?

I wouldnt do that, those are the coolent return lines for the heads they help remove air pockets.

I wouldn't do that either unless you install a manual bleeder on that coolant line. It's very important to the coolant system bleeding setup.

i used the bmr kit. but it looks as if you blocked off the tubes and you havent run the lines together. your setup looks totaly different than mine

Probably not a good idea.

Don't do that, just connect the two ends together.

Yeah, if anybody could find out more info about this mod that would be great, 'cause i pretty much did the same thing larry did. i read it in an ls1/ls6 performance book, and that was one of the mods they said was worth doing. i didn't read anything about connecting any lines together, nor did it say anything about the heads.

you need to connect them together or install a manual bleeder valve..

the air will go to the top of those tubes, but has no way to escape now.

what everyone else said. just run a line between the 2 and you will be good to go

Yea, run it back to the radiator like everyone else said.

I tried a "New and Improved" TB bypass mod.. I got a windshield washer tank and motor, hooked it up to the throttle body and battery, then to a switch. I put coolant and ice in the tank. I figured it would cool the air better at the strip kinda like a "cool can" cools gas.

Didn't see any gains with it and took it off. Looked like a rig {which it was}. Worth a try though. Didn't lose anything but my time.
