Default question for those with fast intake manifold

im currently installing my 92mm fast intake, and i believe i ran into a problem but just maybe a question if anyone could answer. now when i took my stock manifold off and got to the coolant pipe, on the ls1howto website the guy used two. but i only bought one coolant pipe. now he jerry rigged his to block it off but my question is do i need 2 coolant pipes?

You can either: (a) use two coolant pipes and use heater/hose tubing to tie in with the radiator cooling system; or (b) plug the rear two with caps. The caps can be purchased from almost any GM dealer since they come stock on LS6s and LS2s.

There may be other alternatives, but these are the ones I have used.

This thread has the correct part numbers for the plugs and the gaskets.

just by the correct correct crossover coolant pipes so nothing goes wrong. Maybe the local GM dealership will have them in stock

Simply an LS6 crossover up front and block offs in the back. Every LS engine has run block offs in the back since the early 2000s.
