Edelbrock 8881 Water Pump Install

Any one have any pictures?
I bought it and it has a connection for a hose on it that the stock water pump dident have. Im not sure what this connects too, or if I need to plug it up somehow. Any information would be helpful, thanks.

Re: Edelbrock 8881 Water Pump Install

its on the top facing slightly to the passenger side? its 1/2" NPT,

a suggestion, run a tap through it too, just a little bit. All the threads on everything edelbrock that i own aren't tapped quite right. The nipple on my pump only screwscrewed in about 3 threads unless i tapped it out a bit more.
