Coolant lines
 
When you install coolant lines you will obviously have air bubbles in the cooling system so what needs to be done? run the car till it warms up with the rad cap off? what do you people do?

purge the cooling system, I use a special bucket that goes ontop of radiators and make sure all the bubbles get bleed out. You can bleed the cooling system cold, just crack the 12mm bleeder, and make sure their is no bubbles. it should have a steady flow of coolant.

12mm bleeder? where is that, is that the butterfly valve on the bottom of the rad?

No it should be on the upper radiator housing on the head.
