It came in a box of parts for a 455 olds. we know it is a water neck, but do not know what the big outlet is for?

That waterneck is for use on a jetboat with a engine mounted waterpump, the large outlet goes to the large water conection to the water pump inlet and made it work very well with a thermostat.  :thumbup:

Also needed to make a closed cooling system work when you have a heat exchanger on the motor with anti-freeze in the block.... :sly:

Keep it in the swap meet pile for sure...

Do you need another outlet for non water pump use?

Rogers Hopeful, that thing is gorgeous  :thumbup:

The large hose shown going down to the right side of the engine goes to a factory style waterpump.....

Thanks GT, we are accumulating a bunch of swap meet stuff, and will be posting later.

P.S. Sorry to disappoint you with the answer the "there is an Answer", I am currently working on a mathematical answer that hopefully will redeem me.
