<DIV>I remember reading about an after market kit of some kind that provided a
plug on the side of the water pump, don’t remember exactly what for. At one time
people were adding homemade cabs to their H’s and M’s and would pipe in heat
during the winter. But that would require a return line somewhere. Is there
another plugged fitting where the thermostat mounts to the block? I believe
that’s where I remember reading the return line was supposed to be. Also
remember reading something about adding a return line to the upper radiator hose
for some reason using some kind of T fitting.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I would venture it isn’t for a block heater since it’s an elbow and pushing
any heating device into it would not result in getting in it deep enough to do
any good. Even if it was some type of flexible heater, you wouldn’t want it
installed where the rotating parts are.</DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>The other evening I happened to notice this little pipe
elbow sticking out of the side of the water pump on my Super M, and I realized
I had no idea what it was for. Couldn’t find it in the operator’s
manual, and photos of new replacement water pumps don’t show any port
there. A well-done farmer mod, perhaps for purposes of adding a
block heater? Or for circulating hot water through something
else? Anybody ever seen one in that location?<U></U><U></U></P>
