Hi Guys

Removed the radiator last night to take to a radiator shop and noticed that my heater pipe ('84 w/ AC version) is totally corroded and leaking particulate rust.

A while back I bypassed the heater inside the firewall with a single coolant line running from one side of the engine (to heater, now bypassed) to the other (into the engine, from the now bypassed heater).

Can I replace this corroded piece of pipe with a piece of straight pipe - this would not include a port to send hot coolant to the heater - and bypass the entire coolant system, plugging the "into engine" port?

I can upload photos tonight.
