Default Remote Electric Water Pump WITH Heater??

I have spent many an hour on the internet and searching on tech and have not come up with any solid answers for what i want to do on my project and was hoping some one could help me.
I would like to do a remote electric water pump such as this one
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MOR-63570/
because it has 4 outlets that i can connect to my heater hoses. But thats where im confused and dont know what to purchase for this.
Do i need a remote thermostat or will the car never warm up especially with -12 AN hoses??
here is the housing
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MOR-63426/
where will the two lines coming out of this go to? im guessing one of them will go the motor plate and the other one comes from the water pump?? If so then the two heater hoses will just go the the other 2 extra ports on the pump. This will only be used if i use a thermostat and use this plate
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MOR-63471/
to block of the top of the housing with my thermostat in it correct??
Some one please explain this to me LOL
One the return side there are two lines coming out of the block adapter do you y these together?
these are the adapters that go onto the block where the radiator hoses are attached
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MEZ-WP89U/
see there are two fittings one this one which throws me for a curve because this one only has the one but its called a spacer for some reason
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MOR-63615/?rtype=10
which ones do i need here?
Thanks for reading and helping me get this project straightened out

my advice spend the money on a worthwhile mod. i understand the reasoning behind an electric pump but trying to make all this "universal" crap work is probably more of a pain than its worth.

Going with a ewp is a good mod but when it comes to saving 350-450 on a mod just as good I'm all for it. Those plates are designed for ls and there are mounting kits for the pump and thermostat specifically for ls's. I believe this is a good way to go. I'm just confused on the routing thats all

I have a rad mounted pump. I used the meziere pump. Dual -12 outlets

Moroso addapeters for the block.

moroso stat housing with a 165 stat in it. I have a -4 steam vent line on it.

Works really good.

You can hook it up to the heater by drilling and taping the addapter on the inlet and outlet. I have not done this. Not sure how well it would work but would most likey provide some heat.

Very nice and clean setup man! I see that you used an aftermarket radiator as well. I was thinking I wouldn't need too if I used a y fitting or just had one outlet on the block adapter plate. Is this right?

It all depends on what you are trying to do.
I wanted as much of it off the engine as I could get.

If you are going to mount the pump on or near the engine just get the block mounted one.

Moroso makes spacers that will allow a BBC pump also

Tim I am wondering what kind of thermostat you used can you post a link and what did you use to cover for the housing that you where able to run your steam vent. I'm using the stock rad so I'm good there.

Brandon - where did you find those adapters? I actually think those look better and would be easier to route and clean up than the other ones

I am using a standard sbc stat. I have the recomended moroso housing and a cheap housing welded to the radiator. The air vent goes right to the radiator tank.

I see in your picture that it's an aftermarket radiator. Griffin? I'm trying to use the stock one and convert all the an to hose so that I can keep the radiator and the heater. Not sure if that'll work.

Some well planned belt routing. Straight off the crank, over the power steering pump and down to the alternator and back to the crank.
