ok i just tried bypassing my heater core cus its leaking like its cool.
i connected a hose from the back of the intake to the top of the radiator, ive got good flow through the radiator.
is this bypassing the heater core, or do i need to do something else.
i need to drive this car to work in the morning and dont want it over heating on the way.
its a 91 RS 350 tbi if that matters any

Look at your firewall along the passenger side. You will see 2 hoses running into the fire wall. All you need to do is get an elbow and a couple of clamps. Pull both off insert the elbow.

If you traced these 2 to where they went, one goes into the back of the intake, the other should be to radiator, but I can't remember for sure, then it sound like you have it bypassed.
