To prevent cavitating coolant from the waterpump I raised the system pressure up to 10.5 PSI. That help's a lot. To prevent overheating of the #4 cylinder you can use the water outlet of the heater a

I thought about that, it's why I think it will take some testing. I suspect that at higher RPM the pump isn't increasing pressure linearly, there's such a big range of RPM that it operates over. Ther

Yeah, Peyote is plumbed that way, and it might help. I run 16 pounds of system pressure, but I have a non-standard cooling system. As I recall, someone said they put a pressure gauge on the block and

I made my current pulley by turning down a big (approx. 4 or 5 inch diameter) chunk of steel. It took forever. It would be much simpler to machine a hub and bolt an off-the-shelf pulley and harmonic

Hey Bill, just a little hydronic knowledge. If a pump creates pressure on the outlet side(block), it would have a lower pressure on the suction side(radiator). If this didn't happen you'd always be c

I don't have #4 overheating and I agree with the stock radiator won't stand pressures above 5PSI for a long time. I changed the radiator to a model of a cheap german sports car and have plenty of coo

I'd be careful with the neck on the t-stat housing. That's in the area of high pressure before the restriction lowering pressure for the radiator. What we found is that we'd overpower any radiator ca
