On my 304 vs I just put fittings in each side as normal and shaped the pipe to go in the tunnel of the bananas to miss the dizzy.

i'd say they just tap it into the rear of the valley where the valley blocks the rear water ports coming out of the head. A lot of the speedway guys do this on their chevs, but they put it back to the thermostat housing with a spacer below it. tapped into that.

Crossover mod is a bit off topic but seems like a good idea just read up on it & seems GM did it in the later v8's them self!

Pretty annoyed with eBay more & more CRAP on there now, bought supposed genuine GM V8 knock sensor & pulled bung out & went to fit it.... Bung thread looked bigger before I took it out but thought I'd go ahead anyway.

But knock sensor thread measures around 10x1.5 & the bung something like 13x1.5 so a complete waste of time!
