Default heater hose routing

Can someone tell me or send me a diagram or pics of the heater hose routing on a 92-93 vette.
Last year I disconnected my heater core because it was bad, now I replaced it and I cannot find the diagram I drew.

TIA

The upper hose is a 'J' with the short end connecting to the underside of the surge tank. The lower is an 'L' with the short end connecting to the heater flow valve. From the other side of the valve I used a '95 hose to bypass the TB (a '95 upper rad hose as well) and connect up to the pump. This is on a '93 LT1.

Can you send me a pic of the hoses going into the surge tank and heater core?

Thanks

Unfortunately I don't have a digital camera, but I still may be able to get you pics by this evening.

not trying to steal this thread, but I am interested in pics of you '93 TB bypass setup using '95 hoses....I don't need TB heating here in Texas, and I like to be able to remove TB w/o all the hassle with coolant...

I've got the pics and I can provide the part numbers for the hoses you'll need for the TB bypass conversion. Send me a PM with your e-mail addies and I'll forward that info and pics.
