coolant filter

[racin460]

If not running a bypass style setup I would recommend using the heater line that feeds the heater core not the return line from the heater core. that way if the filter does clog you are not over pressuring the heater core.

that's why I am mounting mine lower down on that bracket that line is really stiff

I looked at amazon and couldnt find the base, I didnt look for the filter because I saw no use in ordering from two different places, thanks for all the info again, I am ready to get this truck back on the road and see how well the turbo woke it up, but I told myself when I parked it that I would do everything I had been putting off while it was apart

I just goy mine from NAPA last eek for 35 bucks the exact same setup

No such thing.a water pump does not make pressure.it sucks the coolant around the cooling system.it does not push it

I called my local napa and it was going to be 70-80 dollars for a 4070 filter and the 4019 filter head so I ordered from fleet filter, around 40 dollars after shipping

Which way does the water flow through the system? Does it flow FROM the water pump through the heater core and then to the engine or the other way round?

from the block,to the heater core,returns to water pump.

Thanks a million I have everything made up so I am going to install the filter inline from the heater core to the water pump
