Default Re: Pikes Peak, Again

Professor,
Thanks for taking us along on your trip. Just great!
Now, a technical question: I understand how high altitude equals thin air and lower pressure. Not good for carburation but how does it affect a closed and pressurized system in an engine. Does the radiator water boil at a lower temp? Just curious and trying to understand the high altitude physics.
Thanks again
John
