Post How do I do tthe TB bypass on my LS1?

I did a search but found nothing. I see the tube that send the coolant into the throttle body, but at the bottom of the throttle body it look slike two exits tubes. One goes to the drivers side and the other to the passengers side. The passenger side one feeds into the radiator, and the drivers side one looks like it feeds into a fitting for the heads. Am I going to need to run to auto zone for anything? Thanks guys.

You can connect the two hoses like you did, or for a cleaner look you can take both off and replace with one hose. Just make sure you buy hose suitable for the application. Usually it is fuel/heat resistant grade hose.
Another thing to do for the finished look is to put black vacuum caps on the 2 now abandoned hose barbs coming out of your TB. This will also keep crap from getting in there.
