Heater hose routing diagrams needed! Good evening.
I'm swapping a LT-1 based engine/motor in a NON-Chevy platform, and am trying to find "good" diagrams as to where each hose can go or be deleted.
I've found out the '92 Corvette has a water pump that looks like it lends itself more to a street rod application, without the additional porting.
Like this: https://www.nookandtranny.com/Info_LT1.html (at the bottom)
YES, I know it's a reverse flow cooling system..
I just don't want all those separate hoses/tanks etc taking up room, and keeping it as nice and neat as posible.
So, if those of you that have swapped the LT-1 into _____ and got it to run without overheating, post up pics or links showing what can be deleted or how the hoses can be routed.
Also, I am in the process of trying to contact the person of this vehicle that obviously has it figured out.
Thanks for your time.

Hope this helps. Here is an image that might help:

I think for a very simple set up you can use #2 and #5 for the feed and return to the radiator. I believe #1, #3, #4, and #6 can be capped off.
When I deleted AC in my old '97, I just connected #1 to #3 (heater hoses) with a small length of hose.
Here are some diagrams if you want them:
