Ok i finally did it!!
First off, many thanks to everybody who helped. And those of you who stuck around for this whole month...
Now heres what i did.
Line out from tank to radiator tiebar. Some leveraging of the tiebar was had but probably not necessary.
a) the hose DOES still have a highspot going this route, however fluid was still coming out of the hose and im assuming thats due to the pressure of the fluid itself in the resovior.
B) also i held the resovior while running the pump to burp the system.
After the tiebar i had a 90 degree bent hose that turned straight down into the y fitting. The other top part of the y connects to the endplate outs, which i had switched to have the fluid go DOWN into the y instead of up, like when the filler neck was there.
-sidenote: i wondered if having so much extra fluid in the whole cooling system causes more strain on the i.c. Pump.
From the bottom of the y i put a u bend hose that was a perfect fit into the pump.
So now the system has no kinks. I tapped the pump with a hammer and it turns on great tip by the way!
Tomorrow or friday ill have a new pump, thank f*(k.
So it looks like my car will be set on kill for the 1/4 on sunday

You should always check the pump first when you see IAT2's starting to act funny.
