Heater core HVAC delete

Looking for guidance on coolant line re-routing for deleting the heater core from an S65 car. Other platforms employ block off plates and plugs, but the S65 has coolant routed from the head to the transmission to bring the DCT up to temp more rapidly.
I’ve seen many recommendations to avoid looping the heater core supply and return lines, but I can’t find much info on the S65. All kits and most information seem to be related to other platforms. I obviously don’t want to ruin my engine while chasing 20 lbs.
Hoping there are other similarly afflicted fools here trying to “add lightness” who have already been down this path.
Thanks.

I had the AC refrigerant removed by a local shop in a safe, environmentally conscious way.
One small step to balance out getting 7 mpg and destroying 4 tires in as many days.

Or you could huff it.
