Start With the outcome of the engine
that ones goes to the top entrance on the radiator..
the heater has its own connector on the engine (will depend wich engine)
then the radout put wil go to an T-Piece 1 to the bottle and 1 tot the pump entrance...
if your bottle has 2 exits/entrances then the top one you need to connect it to the thermostat housing will be an hose for it..
anyway on the forum are allot of Sketches.about this..

Did you get the photos i emailed to you? This gives you one example for plumbing up a Pinto. i kind of guessed you might ask this.
It is a proven method using micra rad, no expansion tank (a bit of controvery here!) and a good quality fan set up. Ive also emailed the prices to you
that i was quoted for the parts. Water wetter would be good idea later when the system is proven to be water tight.

I used an Escort radiator. Bottom hose to pump, top hose to thermostat and the smaller output from the pump to the inlet manifold. I don't have
a heater but if I did this would go to the heater matrix then the manifold. I have an expansion bottle on the pipe from the radiator neck and recently
fitted a bottle from a Clio as I was getting fed up of having to remove the nosecone to fill up. This is teed into the manifold pipe with copper
plumbing fittings
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
