Hello... took my "standard heater core" to the local radiator shop for pressure test. Failed. Getting recored for $208. Question: When I hook it up, how do I route the hoses? Water pump to? Thermostat to? One of the tubes from the core is crimped and one is wide open. Can I add a manual valve in the hoses to shut off water flow to the core in the summer time? Which side of the system should it be installed?

Thanks in advance!

-Michael
