Like a knob and forgot too take photos whilst dismantiling the engine I have forgot where these connect up too in the car its a zavoli running a thor v8 d2 engines back together just these 2 pipes proper stumped :confused:
 
If you fit them in series with the heater circuit:

Engine > Vapouriser > Heater > Radiator return

You'll get much quicker warm up of the vapouriser.

You don't need that huge amount of jubilee clips and T pieces either, but you do need a 135 degree water pipe bend to get the connection to the heater.

Our two are both Zavoli multipoint.

yes but in series robs heater efficeny, and also more worrying quite often the vaporiser has narrow bore inlet/outlets and thus can proper restict the heater flow which the engine can need (depending upon engine) to maintain adequate head cooling..
so yes i agree in series =happy vaporiser but unhappy heater..
 
Ours get red hot with no problems, not really noticed any heater lag.

Pipes on the vapouriser can be smaller that main heater connections, but at start-up you've got the pump pushing it only through the heater circuit.

Been like that for nearly 70k miles, including towing trip to south of France this year.
