Need Help with water pump setup

Hey guys I ran into a road block while installing my new motor. I am not going to run a heater core into my car and I was wondering if I could plug all of these ports on the thermostat housing and the water pump and still be okay to drive around on the street. I want to make sure by pluging all of these ports I do not mess with any of the cooling. Thank you for your help in advance.

you need to run the left nipple to the thermostat housing. this is a bypass flow that allows water to circulate even when the thermostat is closed.

so you can plug blue, but you have to run a hose from red to yellow.

you can plug the right hole, and don't forget the one on the intake.

Thanks for the answer. Yeah the one on the intake is getting a water temp sending unit.
