I am installing a electric water pump on my 83 GT, and the heater core hose has an outlet on the water pump. Where are you guys connecting this line when converting to electric water pump?

What brand pump?

Typically most are installed on race engines and do not typically use heater pipes. Some pumps can be drilled/tapped in a specific spot for the return line.

Wouldn't the line coming out of the water pump for the heater core be the feed line and not the return? Im am using the Jegs brand pump part number 555-50933, can I splice in the upper or lower radiator hose with something like this and the the heater core line down to it?
