Abstract: A coolant outlet system for a cylinder head associated with an engine includes a core hole communicating with an upper surface thereof, wherein the core hole is in fluid communication with a coolant jacket of the cylinder head. The coolant outlet system includes an outlet tube having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the outlet tube is coupled to the core hole. The coolant outlet system also includes a jumper elbow coupled to the second end of the outlet tube, wherein the outlet tube and the jumper elbow provide fluid communication between the coolant jacket and an engine crankcase to introduce coolant discharged from the core hole into the engine crankcase.
