[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 6536018, member: 11681"] Guys [SIZE="5"]As an experiment try running a slightly lower coolant level.[/SIZE] [SIZE="3"]If anyone is running one of the bigger racing radiators(don't know if you are), the added volume of coolant needs more expansion room than the stock amount. [/SIZE] The coolant expands when hot(even normal hot), and there needs to be additional room in the expansion tank if there is additional coolant volume in the system. If you are running an aftermarket tank with an overflow nozzle run a hose to a clear plastic bottle zip tied in place. When you see coolant in the bottle, yet the system appears full at the burp plug, then dump the coolant back in your antifreeze gallon jug(not back into the system), and just save it. Then monitor the catch can for any more pukes(repeat if needed) and see if the lower full level stops it. [/QUOTE]
