it all depends on what way your going top run the coolant in the plate. the idea is you want the coolant going into the small holes in the cores and comming out the big ones. i run the coolant into the center of the plate and out the 2 outer fittings, and that being said my cores are setup like the 2nd pic.

For the curious, From the laminova engineer himself:
The plugs in the centre hole of the cores normally should be located on the coolant inlet side (upstream). If there not, in most applications it should not be any problem. For some applications, the plug can come loose, but only for high system pressure applications.

if your running dual pass...ur picture B is the correct way of doing it....the little holes are inlets, so they go on the inside, since ur inlet is in the center, and the bigger holes r outlets, they go on the outside bc the top and bottom tube are outlets...so once agian picture B is the correct way of doing it

In short, your **** is backwards son. Though, your pump isnt really illustrated properly.

Assuming that your pump is wired correctly, you are sending the hot coolant up through the manifold, and in the outlets of the laminovas and out the inlets of the laminovas, then through the overflow, then into the heat exchanger, then back to the pump.

Agreed, but you are doing it wrong. The outlet should flow into the heat exchanger (this makes that hose like 6" long and gives the hot fluid out of the pump immediate cooling), from the heat exchanger to the overflow/resovoir, then into the two inlets of the manifold, then out of the single outlet gravity fed into the pump. I think this is even how the GMR instructions dictate it. The idea is to have the cooler water in the overflow on reserve, so you can fill it with ice, not in the heat exchanger.
