1 - Top of Header Tank
2 - Radiator Top Hose
3 - T piece on bottom radiator hose to help with over cooling.
4 - ECU temp sender I believe / Instrument Sender is on the top if you have one?
1 - Oil breather pipe
2 - Bottom of expansion tank.
3 - In the bin
The only other water connection is then the bottom radiator hose which is connected to the water pump. I put a T piece in to connect to 3 in the first
image as recommended by Westfield builders. Ran fine like this for over a year.

I agree however:
Top Pic
3 is the thermostat bypass and is only open when the thermostat is closed to allow for a flow of water around the engine and stop hot spots in the
engine.
Bottom Pic
2 I would be a bit loathed to direct that to the header tank as it is intended for a heater and so will flow at all times the engine is running but it
does depend on the radiator you are using. One other tip have a look at the thermostat and you will see there is a little ball bearing in the plate if
this is prised out it will help to bleed air out of the system.
have a look at

This site goes to town on all the options. I opted for a layout that was as simple as possible but still effective.

I have no heater so number 2 pic number 2 outlet is now blocked off, header tank runs straight round to T-piece in bottom hose.
