Removing heater

I'm removing my A/C, and want to take out my heater while I'm at it. (Florida, and this car is never getting sold) Is it possible to go straight from the engine to the radiator, without going through the heater core or throttle body or anything? What would I have to block off or plug, and how would I do it?

Ya dude. I did just that on my camaro, after you remove the heater core you just connect the line coming from the back of the manifold to the rad. Then you have bypassed the heater. I'll take some pics for ya. Give me a few minutes.
