[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 6950020, member: 11681"] Because of the mass involved with an air to coolant heat exchanger(both rad and H/E) I don't think spraying is going to work. The cheapest way that I can think of that will also work would be: 1. Completely box in the rad so any and all air entering HAS TO PASS THOUGH THE RAD, and not bypass/leak around it. This can be done very cheaply. 2. Put a 97/98 Lincoln Mark 8 cooling fan assembly on. Cutting is required but it can be made to work and it flows more CFM than anything out there I know of. 3. Drill 4 3/16" holes in the OE T-stat. (or, not recommended for street use, remove main diaphragm, retaining only the bypass block off) 4. Fill the engine cooling system with [B][SIZE="3"][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]Evans NPG+ or NPG-R waterless [/COLOR][/SIZE][/B]coolant. (boiling point of 369*F) 5. Move limp mode to a higher temperature in the tune. (I'm not 100% sure this can be done yet but I believe it can) [B][COLOR="Red"]WARNING: DO NOT DO THIS WITHOUT THE EVANS COOLANT!!! NORMAL WATER MIX COOLANT WILL BOIL AND ALLOW LOCALIZED HOT SPOTS, WHICH WILL RESULT IN DETONATION RELATED ENGINE DAMAGE![/COLOR][/B] [/QUOTE]
