Heator Hose Connection

Installed heater core on 86 Chevy C10 that wasn't connected, need instructions on where to connect heater hose, to the engine block or water pump.

Take a look at this example... Illustration of heater hose routing
If you don't have the heater hose connection to the radiator, the 3/4" hose will connect to a fitting threaded into the top of the water pump.  The 5/8" hose connects to an intake manifold fitting located either at the right front or right rear, depending on model configuration.

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!
