coolant hose routing Ok, so i capped off my lower radiator port, upper radiater hose port, and throttlebody port on the bleed line. The caps are drying out and i need to replace them all. For the throttlebody line, I will just use a piece of hose and a bolt with a hose clamp. As far as the upper radiator hose and lower oil cooler port on the radiator, can i just connect them with some hose? I know none of this will look really good, but there's not much else to do as far as i can think of.

You dont have to cap off those coolant lines in the throttle body, they dont create any vacuum. Leave them open to air.
As for the oil cooler lines, i would bypass it straight to the waterpump, the small lower port on the bottom right of the waterpump.

What upper radiator hose are you referring to (what #)?

As for the lower radiator port, and lower drivers side port on the WP, you can connect the two with a hose and clamps.
