^ now you do know that you're not allowed to rewrite my intelligent posts don't you :P

but yes it is bolted to the head so if you remove the cps and unplug all your sensors there and move the harness you can unbolt the entire thing and can put it in a vice to remove the sensors
and if you have a spare already to bolt on... you could have a play with it to try and get the bolt out... and if you can't get it out... no harm done huh

look at 16333 (right hand top)

I had it all screwed up. I thought the front of the thermo housing bolted to the block, but now I see there is a rear part of the thermo housing that can be removed from the block (let me know if I got this wrong). Is it difficult to remove from the block? (remember, I'm working in the engine compartment, I don't have the engine on my kitchen table). The TSRM was blowin my mind cuz it's all different now. But I did get a nice pic of the cooling system printed on 11 by 17 paper (the big sheet). I think I might be able to do this. Thank you everyone for all the help!!!

k see at the front of this pic just in front of my ss exhaust manifold you can see 3 thread holes right below where the cps or distributor goes... those are the 3 studs/bolts you need to remove to get the rear thermo housing off

You mean right in front of the exhaust manifold but slightly above? That looks like where it belongs. Thanks for all your help. By the way, beautiful header. In fact the whole build looks wonderful.

Ain't ya worried about all the heat that's going to be thrown off by that thing? How do ya compensate for that. I was thinking of installing a header and a more opened intake, but I'm afraid of heat fryin the sh*t out of everything. I have an N/A so I would like somethin to up the horsies a little.

P.S. You were extremely helpful to me and I appreciate it.

nahh not really... i figure.. if it does start heating other stuff up a bit too much then i'll do something about it lol, you could maybe put a couple of washers in your bonnet hinges to raise it a little to let some of the heat out if it is a problem

but i don't suspect it will be any more than what the stock manifold puts out

& no problem, glad i could help
