Help Me Cool Down

The manual is wrong. I have to run a thermostat. If I don't, it won't get any temp in it.

Think about it. The longer the coolant stays in the block, the HOTTER it gets. If the radiator can't get rid of the heat, adding more heat only makes it worse.

Again, it's an ignorant old wives tale that coolant needs to stay in the radiator longer. The book is wrong.

Come to think of it, I can't think of a Chrysler book I have that says to keep the coolant in the radiator longer. It's just wrong and doesn't make sense. Just like multi pass radiators.

My motor has no bypass. The coolant system was designed at a NASCAR shop. I do not need a stat that can fail or the washers.

Due the water leaving my block is restricted with a one inch hose. This prevents cavatating which causes steam pockets. I am using a one inch upper hose. No stat can create cavatating. you must restrict the flow if your radiator is to large or with a high flow pump.

But like always you seem to know everything. I would rather believe the experts then your misguided advice as always. Sometimes I think you just make up stories to cause conflict. There are time you are correct but not often

Like I said I went to a 5/8 washer to see if I can drop the cavitating more . I was alright with the one inch hose as recommended by a friend Modify Nascar shop foreman Tony Hirshcman. Spotter for Kyle bush. #18 who designed my cooling system for street and track racing.

I did not decide this application or make up a story as you. The experts did. Something you and I are not. But I am learning late in life. Something I can admit.

YOU MUST RESTRICT FLOW LEAVING THE MOTOR AND TRAVELING THROUGH THE RADIATOR IF YOUR RADIATOR CANNOT DO IT. Steam pockets can be caused at idle with a high flow electric pump.

Seams like they all agree with the old Mopar manuals. I believe the later manuals they assumed it should be known. from knowledge learned in the 70's. Almost 50 years ago.
