Hi Doc
You don't need no stinkin transfer pump. If tanks are vented to atmosphere,
the system will have to boil away all the water to lose cooling. A single
connection hose or tube between the two vented tanks is sufficient. What
Dave was referring to is how much water do you need. Looking at HP/BTU/time
and the BTU it takes to phase change the water you have, should predict how
much water a pass will take.
For insurance connecting your ballast tank is probably a good Idea. Also,
if you can package the radiator laying down in the tank, cooling won't
really be affected until almost completely empty. I couldn't package that
so may have to actually do the calculations. :-d
If you can package the engine cooling system in the toe board and psgr seat
area, that leaves the conventional radiator location for a massive charge
air cooler. Now the question is where do you put the ice water tank and
still balance the weight as you want it?
