Endplate and opt b installed have a ? now

The first pic is the real one with the hoses connected i tried to write what each hose was and where it went and the 2nd diagram is how its connected the way we did it from the GM instructions. My problem is the IAT2 are like 140s low 120s at times but never get to my normal 70-80 and sometimes they got to 150. I have no leaks, we connected the hoses to the right places so i dont see how we could of messed it up, the only thing that is puzzling is the bleeder bolt, i couldnt find a 90* elbow piece to use so i might have kinked the bleeder hose, but i dont see how that can cause such high IATS. I drove 4 times yesterday and about 30minutes on the freeway also let it run in my driveway and i saw the opt b tank bubbling, also i took the bleeder bolt off and the coolant kept rising and i had a HUGE puddle of coolant cuz it wouldnt stop. Anyways let me know!

Is the line to the pump on the in side or the out? Make sure the bleeder line isn't kinked that will stop the air from bleeding out properly & did yoy use a .40 oriface?

1) Line from laminovas too (in) side of pump, (out) of pump to H/E out of H/E to center port, the oriface is also needed to reduce the amount of fluid going to the new reservoir & to create back presurre!

The IC pump hose is the hose that goes straight down to the pump we connected that one to the T fitting its not the hose that connects to the side of the pump. Also the middle port on the endplate is connected to the hose on the aftercooler.

So the top and bottom ports on the endplate are all connected somehow to the IC pump and opt b. Then the middle is to the aftercooler. And yah we had problems with the bleeder and orfice. I think it might be kinked causing the coolant to be so high and it doesnt have an orifce right now it fell out when i tried to redo the bleeder last night. So right now its kinda jammed in between the crashbar and h/e with a clamp.

Thanks to Blilbt I reversed my OUT hose to my IN on the IC pump and put the OUT to the pass.side H/E nipple then ran the T fitting with a hose to the IN on the ic pump. Works awsome just gotta find time to redo the angle hose that the out goes to the h/e its cramped and kinked abit and I have a tiny leak after the cars turns off.
