If you're working on an LS engine build, you know that proper coolant flow is essential for keeping temperatures in check. The throttle body bypass hose kit from MSCRP is designed to address common cooling issues that can plague LS engines, especially in performance applications.
Many LS engine setups struggle with steam pockets and air locks in the cooling system, particularly when the throttle body is mounted high. This can lead to overheating and poor performance, especially under heavy load. The bypass kit provides an alternative coolant path that helps eliminate these issues by allowing steam to escape and promoting better circulation throughout the system.
This kit comes with everything you need for a clean, professional installation. You'll receive a durable steel braided hose that can withstand high temperatures and pressure, along with two coolant ports, two bolts, two O-rings, and PTFE tape for leak-free connections. The modular design allows you to install the kit on either the front or rear of the cylinder heads, giving you flexibility based on your specific engine setup.
Whether you're building a street machine, a track day toy, or a full-on race car, this bypass kit is an essential piece of cooling system hardware. It's particularly valuable for forced induction applications where heat management becomes even more critical. The improved coolant flow helps maintain consistent engine temperatures, protecting your investment and ensuring reliable performance mile after mile.
Please note that this kit is designed specifically for GM LS series engines and is not compatible with FAST 102 intake manifolds. While thread sealant is not included, using PTFE tape (which is provided) along with proper installation techniques will ensure a reliable, leak-free connection that will serve you well for years to come.
