I have not had my engine running since then either...

BUT, I did run the electric water pump and my electric heater with the key in the accessory position. It circulated well, and I could hear most of the bubbles flushing out.

Whether or not it will all explode when there is water pressure and circulation through the block remains to be seen
OK, I still have some time before mine needs to work, so I'll wait and see how yours works out. I like your location, but it has to work, I'm concerned about the flow with the thermastat closed, but we'll see. I'll go down another path and see if I can get anywhere

Mistake in the 3rd pic. is that I made it up using a 1/2" NPT bung, for a -12 AN (5/8") it needs to be a 3/4" NPT. So back to the drawing board
