head pressure release port in radiatorn

so i just put my motor and everything and got it running. I noticed the line that goes from the back of the passenger side head that hooks to the radiator snapped the piece off the radiator. Now i hooked that line up to the overflow coolant port on the radiator and jb welded up the hole where the port for the head pressure release line goes. Is this really bad?? i have no money and will replace it eventually but how baout for now can i ride with it?

Re: head pressure release port in radiatorn

I'm not 100 percent sure, but I don't think that will work. Reason being, there is coolant flowing thru that line from the back of the head. If you hook it up to the coolant overflow line, the coolant will not be able to flow when you put the radiator cap on. HTH
