Aftermarket Radiator/throttle body coolant delete

All, I’m looking to delete everything related to the throttle body coolant system, this includes the nipple that comes off the radiator.

Has anyone done this?

Figure I might as well upgrade the radiator while I’m at it and I’d like to remove the stock coolant reservoir and replace it with a smaller remote mounted one so I can eventually run an UMP or Donaldson filter as my stock air box will no longer clear my coilover towers.

Yes, if you live anywhere remotely warm it's not needed.

I just did that and no issues... what do you mean by nipple at radiator? The crossover tube on the radiator that goes into the TB? I kept it and have it directly into the heater hose crossover pipe.

I couldn’t find an aluminum radiator that didn’t have the nipple- I don’t have it hooked up but think the only way to delete it is you doing it
