I am getting the bits together for the cooling system on the zx12 install and was wondering where people recon the best place to put the heater / demister system. ie between water pump out and oil cooler or between pump feed and pump... ??

My heater is taken off between the head and the thermostat. The return tees into the pipe from the rad to the water pump, which feeds cool water into the engine.

This is the BEC section......... surely you cant be allowed to say such blasphemous things as "adding a heater / demister" to your lightweight car in this section!!

I have 2 outs from the engine block, one goes to the oil cooler the other goes to the water pump. will i get enough flow, or could i possibley interrupt a necessary flow ?
