Guys i need some help please....ive tried everything
408 stroker, eddy ali heads, h-beam rods, ross pistons, 11:1 comp, high stall, demon carb, MSD at 18 degrees initial, approx 14.0 AFR
I'm running a CSR electric pump, 28" ally rad, 2 x 12" electric fans, 3/4" restrictor in the stat housing.
it keeps boiling over and pushing water out of the over flow then of course keeps getting hotter as it has less water, 200+ degrees and i have to switch it off.
I fitted a 25-28lbs rad cap in an attempt to keep the water in it......it still gets super hot, this is ticking over in the garage and hotter even quicker on the street.
i've got all the air pockets out, flushed the system (its all basically new) fresh water and antifreeze......and it seems a little better as i did have air in the system
i fitted cooler spark plugs 8's NGK racing, think this has also helped a little
Is it now the cap making/allowing it to get hot 200/220 degrees???
or
are those CSR pumps only good for racing, short duration, 1/4 mile and turn it off???
any suggestions welcome
