Default Re: Thread - I screwed up

Just read an article in current HOT ROD magazine on this topic. Apparently new cars have a temperature sensor at the inlet to the water pump and attempt to maintain 200-220°F for best coolant results.

Water pump inlet is the same as lower radiator tank.

Done please...I'm 2 weeks away from engine install in my restomod Merc. That's where my head is at. Restomod is perhaps a mis-lable but the 286 flathead is reputed to be 200 hp. A stroker and pretty.
