points to remmeber in cooling systems!
1.overly thick cores dont work aswell.
2.if you have the room,tillt the radiator back.
3.filler neck has to be highest point in system or you have to use a pipe to fill.
4.there is nothing wrong at all with copper,i prefur alloy because i get pwr core cheap and do the end tanks and alloy cooler inside them{lol or if im slack a mate does them for me,thanks plazma man :)ill show you him the link later!lol}
5.make sure the radiator is sealed in,so no air bipasses around it,youd be suprised how much cooling air can be lost.
6.bleed,bleed and bleed again,air is a curse in a cooling system.
7.you can go to a higher pressure rad cap if you system needs it,which can help aswell in a well bled system.
8.use water till you know there is no leaks in your new system.
9.make sure you run a thermostat or at the very least a restrictor,if the water flows to fast you wont get the full benifit of the cooling system.
10.high flow thermostats can be a big help,if you dont have a bleed of the thermostat housing drill a couple of 1/8 holes were the bleed holes are.
11.in older cars,the fan shroud of a later model car can be a huge help.
i could go on a bit more,but i finished my morning coffe,need a refill
mick
p.s sorry if its a bit all over the place,but just going of the top of my head and im tired.
