I/ll give it a try. Water (cool) is pumped out of bottom of rad. and into the front of the block. It goes around the cyl. and on to the back of block. Here it goes up into the back of the head and from there to the front of head, where it enters the intake. When the thermostat sees the desired temp. it will open and let the water (now hot) inter the top of rad. The 2 small holes are called steam holes. The other holes are block off to keep the water from intering the head before getting to the back cyl.
