From the website:

Quote:
Water has superior heat transfer capabilities but water’s low boiling point is close to the operating temperature of an engine, and water can cause corrosion.
The benefits are no water, no corrosion, lower freeze and higher boiling point. However the main function, which is cooling, ie heat transfer, is less effective than water. In a cooling compromised system like a Model A, which is at the brink of cooling capacity, this is likely not a good idea, unless you have a non stock fan, an excellent radiator, a clean block in the internal water chambers, and don't drive up long hills in the summer. My model A with a new radiator, a stock 2 blade fan and suspect dirty water jacket in places, has no reserve cooling capacity.
