after a fresh rebuild and a new three row radiator core....heat is still very
present!!!!!!!!!!!! DID THEY EVER RUN COOL FROM THE FACTORY? or what
temp is normal?
1) were any SV's produced with shrouds, I know the earlyer models had
them.
2) what is the stock distance between the radiator and the fan?
3) how many blades are on the stock fan?
4) have any looked into creating a high volume waterpump? or putting a
directional fillet in the water pump? This trick works well on 2002
BMWS
5) are the water pump pully's the same size, a smaller diameter more
revolutions, more volume throught the radiator, but only if there is
enough air moving throught the mouth of the car????? hummmmmm
6) were any blocking materials used to direct the flow of air through the
oil coller and lower radiator from the lower part of the mouth ( under the
bumper)
I feel the engineering of the factory is far superior to some of the
modifications, 16"sucker fan, four row aluminum radiator, this cars had
to run reliably or they would not have had the life they had..........I just
can't figure this beast out.........help
