I have a 01 S/C and I was reading somewhere that you can block or re-route the coolant lines that come off of the the TB and intake manifold and the car will run colder?
Is this true?
Is it safe?
If so, how is it done?
Thanks

Should be able to just loop the lines (run the input line into the output line) and it will keep the TB cooler. Whether you actually see gains or not will depend on how bad heat soak is in the rest of the components. I did this to my dad's 'vette, I doubt it made much of a difference.
The drawback is that the TB/blade could ice up in cold weather. That is why the TB has coolant running through it normally.

its probably worth it if you live somewhere very hot.
but its not worth it in the winter
it only takes a few minutes to do so you can do it for the summer and take it out in the winter

from what i know
this is so that your car will warm up faster
it runs coolant through the tb so it gets warmer air which allows it to warm the motor up faster
