the ls1 doesn't have bleed screws like the l.t1 does it? 
all i did when i swapped the thermostat was run it for a while with the radiator cap off and make sure it stayed full.
hmmm...maybe i'm missing something.
how big is the bottle of WW? i would think you could just pour it into the radiator when it's cold and basically top it off. any excess after that will go into the overflow tank.
or just drain the amount out the bottom of the radiator, then refill it with the WW.
