On a 5.0 is the heater core right by the smog pump with them 2 knobs and if so do you pour anti freeze in there or what do you do to make the heater run hot?

Huh?

The "two knobs" you're referring to are the caps for your charcoal cannister; this is for your fuel tank. I'd highly advise against pouring anything into it.

If your heater isn't blowing hot, check the cable going from the mixer control (on the AC panel) to the heater box. If it's working as it should, check to make sure the heater hoses off the engine are on the correct fittings.

Buy one of these if you plan on replacing the heater core.
