am i right in thinking the coolent pipe coming off the inlet, goes to the heater matrix, then the other side of the matrix goes to the plastic coolent galley?

as i dont have a heater matrix im thinking i can just link them?

If youre not using a matrix (i.e. not having heaters) then yes just sleeve them together as the matrix is just a loop in essence, so by joining those two pipes youre cutting it out!

The (small) pipe that comes off the inlet goes to the header tank, its usually connected just before the header tank tho with a T piece (into the rad to header tank hose).
The 2 pipes to / from the matrix can just be joined together.

i am fitting a nova engine on twin 40's to a corsa b

there is no heater matrix as i have removed it,

so the pipe coming off the inlet i run the the plastic galley on the back of the engine,. and the other pipe i run to the bottom of the header tank,
the top inlet of the header tank will go to the rad? and the big fat one obviosly goes to the rad.

thats all correct??
