Default inlet and return line

Are both your inlet and outlet lines on your radiator on the same side? If so that was one of the problems with the non intercooled early first gen Dodges as the coolant never saw the other side of the radiator!
I'm not tryin to bust your build, just tryin to help

No they are on separate sides. The radiator is an 80-86 6.9.

Spent the whole weekend tracing down why it would not start. Ended up being the manual pcm I bought, its shot. Put the auto pcm back on and it started. Need to return the manual pcm and hopefully the 2nd manual pcm the shop has will function.

Anyways test drive time!
