I have a 440ICD, never around a 350. Is there any sort of a top cover or other plate you can remove to see in the transmission before taking the crawler all apart?

I would think that line was to allow the water pump to circulate water in the block before the water was hot enough to open the thermostat. With no thermostat it would not make much difference. If you install a thermostat you will need that circulation to prevent hot spots in the block.

Amos Wait til you get a little older and CRS starts kicking in, finding tools is a real joy then. You could send a little of that rain out here to near Abilene. I could sell you these three 440ICs I have collected. That could keep you busy a while. I am 77 and starting to think about thinning the he...
