I have a leak in my heater core that I will fix later on this year

My question: Can I block off the two nipples at the block (heater core water feed and return nipples) with pipe plugs, or must there be a hose between the two to allow for coolant flow?

Either way works. In Puerto Rico very few classic cars have the heaters hooked up and I have it blocked on my Challenger and looped on my Cuda

Just go down to the local auto parts store and get some 3/8 plugs. That way you won't have any worries.
