I'm still drying my pants from the coolant leak....the heater core finally gave out and I need to know what is the correct procedure to bypass the core until I have the time to fix it (I heard the dash needs to come out, yikes!).

Does anyone have the correct parts list that I need to purchase to make this work? Do I connect the coolant hose before the vacuum control valve or after it? Can i just remove it all together? Then, the other side of the hose right into the block?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
