Message	What I mean is I would think that you want the flow to increase as temperature increases. But would also think that there is an optimal point, i.e. X GPM you would not want to go over (even though the pump has the capability to) as it would pump the water through the radiator too quickly to allow enough time in it to cool. Also, there would be some point, not sure how you will determine this, at which flow through the block is at maximum efficiency. Of course the temp max. efficient flow GPM and the max efficient flow through the block (hmmmm... maybe even the radiator?) are most likely all different. Make sense? _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ Want to see progress of my Z's renovation that got it to where it is today?
