MotorDyne Copper Throttle Body heater installation... help!
After installing the MD Copper Throttle Body heater (which came with my 5/16" spacer), I unplugged the two coolant hoses that originally went to the plenum and put them on the copper piece. However, what am I supposed to do with the original coolant inputs? Am I supposed to cover them, or leave them open?

TIA for the help!

I don't think you need to do anything with them. It's just a hollow passage on the upper plenum and so it makes no difference.

You don't need to do anything with them, but you can cover them up if you like.

Its only a short segment of closed flow channel.
