Anyone run an intake without heat crossover in winter?
Absolutely true, they don't because they are/were all EFI and didn't need to heat a carb or choke.
The warmup heat for the heater to work as soon as it can comes from that one hose from the water pump to the intake.
That hose bypasses the thermostat and recirculates the coolant around and around through the block and heater core until the engine warms up enough so the thermostat opens.
