Chris,

I suspect air is going into, rather than out of, the vent at the base of =
the windshield since that is usually a high pressure area (NASCAR =
engineers began taking engine induction air from that location many =
years ago).  Tape a 4=E2=80=9D piece of string there to watch which =
direction the air flows.

possible to relocate it to the side or lower?  The advice that I got =
from Griffin Radiator (they made my radiator) was to use a puller fan as =
it blocks less flow, so if you can I would move the fan to the back if =
there is room.  The NASCAR guys build their oil coolers into the =
radiator and that is what I did, it is in the drivers side tank.  It =
makes for better air flow and on cool to cold days it warms the oil much =
quicker.

possible side vents?  This is something to consider, as the speed you =
can make likely means a ton of air going into the engine bay, it has to =
exit somewhere.  You could have a situation where there is no air flow =
through the radiator at high speed.

 My alum radiator (50x50cm x 8cm) developed a very small leak but it =
would only happen when the thing got up to temp.  It was very hard to =
find.  You might also try changing caps.  If it is not in the cooling =
system I would look at the ducting and airflow out from engine =
compartment.  It could be a simple situation of to much air getting in =
and not enough getting out at high speed to maintain flow.

happens.

more slower? It was running on a ratio of 0.8 slower than crank, =
currently 1:1 speed. Any ideas? 10 Liters are circulating.
