Default water coolant lines, pics of where to tap? please help..

I have a t3 that needs some water coolant lines. but i have a pretty vauge idea of where to tap forthe feed or return. My only ideas i have gotten so far is to tap the bottom of my radiator as the feed. and i have this tuner toys block for my return.

Misc people have said that its not going to work that way and to just use the throttle body coolant lines. I feel completely helpless cause i have no idea which ones. So if anyone can help with some pics or diagrams, anything is usefull at this point. or if my current idea will work, lemmie know that too. I currently have a D15B with a Z6 intake mani. any help would be great. thnx

im not running them either

but to answer your question just run it off one of the sensors from the throttle body through the turbo then back to the sensor... 5/16" rubber hose youll need about 6 feet.

where did that come from? use common sense for running the coolant lines, you dont even need to run them. just run oil.
