...of an update. I fixed a few of the minor things. Bottom hose, Radiator sealing between the support, burped the system new coolant and water wetter and tweaked my tune its a little on the rich side now. I runs fine and criusing along at 3200rpm 70mph or 120kph temp rose to 205f before turning...

I will tell you my experience put a bigger water pump pulley on it to increase the speed of the water pump. I had a customer we built a 512 stroker on pump gas, for a 4x4 truck and he wanted a serpentine belt system. The engine ran hot, swapped out radiators, high flow pumps, even took the...

Yeah, the radiator stuff is important but more importantly, you have a really effective parking brake to leave the car like this:

...degrees. One of my cars is a 69 Coronet R/T heavy built 440 bored .40 BDS 871 blower 900+hp 26" aluminum triple pass rad running around 210 on hot days. I added 2 bottles of water wetter now she runs around 190-195 might hit 200 at stop lights. Motor has been together for 6 years now, no...

My 22 uses factory 7 blade no clutch and shroud and still doing good but I had shop add another row (3 ) up from 2

Glen-ray for radiator, throw out the flex fan, use factory fan & clutch.

...trick is to make sure that all crevices, round holes and openings small and large are sealed so that incoming air has no place to go but through the radiator. 12.5 compression, city street driven, distilled water, water wetter, Robert Shaw high flow thermostat. 190 degree tops on hot humid days.

...210 degrees with a 3 pass aluminum rad. I used a weak blend of antifreeze/coolant and water approx 25% antifreeze, then add 2 bottles of water wetter which is more than what it says on the bottle and dropped to 190 from 210. It works. Car is stored in a temp controlled shop so no worries on...

...shroud plus the 26" aluminum radiator. 50/50 blend anti freeze and water. I have not ever got to the point of needing to try one of the water wetter type products. If my car ran high temps 220 and above I would sure try a bottle or two. I have read or heard many good reports on the stuff...

Take it, this is a 440 "Punched Out" to a 512? Had a customer with this EXACT complaint. As we did the machine work & build, but, Customer didnt want advice on how to setup once he got it into his '68 Dodge. These comments look like what we'd advise. However, I've ran across 2 or 3 blocks that...

Still runs hot it needs another burp with the front of the car raised.

Yep. It brought the temps down 15 degress. From 200 to 185 in my 440. No other changes other than adding the stuff.

It seems this wetter stuff is wetting our appetite for using it in hot climates. I've heard, but not tested other products that claim they can cool better than their rivals, sometimes by 20 degrees. The reason I posted this is that my engine has 12.5 compression, thus creating extra heat in the...

I have a dual plane intake manifold so I use the original valley pan. Did you have to install the valley cover first before installing the cylinder heads?

Same here. Just had a hot weekend at the track and was not excited about the temp gauge unwilling to drop between rounds.. Then Doh! , forgot to dump the winter crap and get some fresh water+ wetter... It's not about " drop coolant temps by 15" or whatever... but more the rate of temp drop

Yes, stock systems should and do work properly as designed, but compression, timing can be gremlins that overtake a system. In my system, I run pure distilled water because of its higher boiling points, but add a wetter for lubing and supposed heat control insurance. In the winter months, I...

Update: The Mishimoto radiator did the trick and I am sure the wetter water did help also. We have been at over 100 degrees everyday for the past week and even in traffic with ac on it fights to get to 210. I stuck with the factory clutch fan and reserve electric fan. It is nice to pull up...

The crankshaft is the DRIVE pulley, accessories are driven pulleys.

...fan fast enough at idle because of it. My Challenger issues did not go away with any of the things I tried with the timing changes, Water Wetter, the Flow Kooler pump, a pusher fan in front, or the 160 degree thermostat. Once I swapped back the factory belt and pulleys, my heating problems...

...came out so maybe it’s not frozen through. Water is still dripping out. Will pull dipstick now and look. Ran straight water with water wetter for better cooling. Heater core started leaking early in summer so that’s been out already and now at Glen Ray for restoration. External trans...
