My site's been down all weekend. I have a trouble call in with my hosting provider.
The LT1 intake assumes you will do a TB coolant bypass. If you really want hot coolant flowing through the TB then route the 5/8" coolant hose from the remote t-stat to the TB then to the heater core.
Here's my diagram (shows a TB bypass setup).

My only concern is that the throttle body would freeze up at cooler temps. I put this vehicle away for the winter, so it won't see anything less than about 50 degrees.
Thanks for the diagram, John.
