so i bought an electric water pump and now im not sure where to run the lines to. the stock one had two fittings to run the hoses onto on the pass side of the pump. one seems to be feed and the other return. this electric one has two large holes on each side of the pump. drivers side seems to be for the lower rad hose. not sure about the pass side hole. but it came with a plug in the box i guess you can use if your not running heat. but basically i have two hoses i have to run for the heat and only one hole... idk how well im explaining this. but heres a link to help

Is this for a V8? Then one is the heater feed, the other is the bypass to the thermostat housing. The heater return is the vertical fitting screwed into the manifold just to the right of the distributor, attached to one of the metal pipes coming from the heater.
And did you notice on your Summit link...
Application tab: "Not for use with serpentine drive systems."
ok. well im going to run a restrictor instead of an actual thermostat. so i guess i can do without bypassing it. so i guess i can just use that on hole that i think is a feed to run to the heater?
and i think i can run a serp belt around it. using just an alt, crank and ps with a mustang bracket i think i can make a triangle around the pump. if not ill just go crazy trying to figure out what to do when the time comes. lol. but it sems like it'd clear.
so i think this sound good. but does anyone know if it'd actually work?
Now that I think about it a bit more, I wonder if the non-serpentine warning means it's a "conventional" pump (designed to turn the same direction as the crank) rather than ours, which are "reverse rotation" (turns the other way). If so, it won't pump the coolant properly unless you change all the other pulleys too.
