cougar_68 said:Hi, I'm doing a 5.0L EFI swap. Does it matter which heater hose goes where? I know one goes to the intake and one goes to the water pump, but I don't know which (upper/lower) goes to which place or if it matters.
P.S. Why can't I search???
WORTH said:It doesn't matter, it just goes in one end of the heater and out the other, you can put them on which ever way is the easiest route.
Ozsum2 said:Well, it does a little bit but probably not enough to matter. My diagram shows the direction of circulation, and since the inlet and outlet on the heater core are upper and lower, crossing the hoses may mean the flow has to go uphill.

( highest city in the USA) would worry about the coolant having to flow up hill Whatcha think it does going from the block UP to the heads and UP out of the intake into the heater hose Not to mention that initial steep pull up from the bottom of the radiator UP to the water pump.
D.Hearne said:Yea, that's nice, fires at night. But then again that's normal for even the warmest summer days in Leadville. It got down to 68 degrees here last night, we've had a somewhat "cool" summer here this year. Two weeks ago a front came thru and it was down to 60 at nightStayed that way for almost a week.
