My view was only utilizing it for the water radiator at speed when  
thermostat called for it. In my small car the original radiator area for this  
has 
become about 25% of what we need. We will obviously utilize a new larger  
radiator 
for Maxton, but are looking at what we need for the longer runs at  
Bonneville. I'd think a larger surface area, as in more tubing and smaller  
orifices 
than what's used for water spraybar would be the way to  go with the efficacy 
of 
CO-2    .I'd also like to see  more info on volume rates necessary and the 
economics of reality for  keeping this thing fed on the long course.
  As for the fuel cooler and heat exchanger, I'd have to agree  with Dave, 
waaaay too much more complications for the minimal advantage  proclaimed, at 
least the way they use it.
By the way Dave, I became a Grandpa on the 15th Feb, would've  named her 
Dahl-ia if it was on the 14th !... 2 months preemie, just  small, that's all. 
Got 
her Grandpa's Type A personality, bouncing off the  incubator walls.
Trying hard to be at Maxton April 2/3, could use about 11 more days this  
month.
Bob,
