Sierra brand propylene glycol. I like it better than ethylene glycol because it's better thermal conductor and non-toxic to humans and animals. Here's a comparison of the two kinds: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/et...l#.Uo_Xd5fn9hE

Thanks guys. I have the distilled water ready to go after I flush out the system. I'm trying to finish up and evaluate a previously started restoration of my 32 Cabriolet V8, so I'm sure there will more advice solicited. Thanks
