You should be good to gonif you got the antifreeze to come out the exhaust after all what you did. I just did my Raptor yesterday and it's even easier with the closed loop cooling system

I think I was looking at the Facebook page and someone who put the Indmar sea strainer/flush kit on.

Dont do this, at temp the thermostat just begins to open. Most of the antifreeze will bypass the engine and go to the exhaust and out the muffler.
If you drain your block then hook up the intake to antifreeze it will fill the block thru the j tube after any water left from the intake ,pre and post impeller hoses and bottom of the jtube have entered the block and diluted the antifreeze. Once the block is filled remaining antifreeze will mix with water left in the exhaust manifolds if they were not drained , then out to mix with any water in the muffler if it was not drained. This is for open cooling systems
I like to drain (shopvac) eveything ( block,heater,pre and post impeller hoses, vdrive , and shopvac out the jtube ( easier to remove top housing hose end than circ pump end ) before sucking up plumbing antifreeze. The antifreeze is overkill but it only takes a few more minutes.09 21v LAUNCH

So DOC your saying that even with the thermostat closed antifreeze will go in the block?

Just winterized today and made a video. I don't use anti-freeze, never have. I'm in Kansas City, and we see single digit temps and below freezing consistently.
