IC tank aeration

[Fopar]

I know its been discussed but can't find threads... got a GT500 pump in and now have the aeration problem most people have. First thought was get rid of coolant and go to water wetter but can't do that as I live in the frozen north now...

Everyones going to say go with a bigger tank, but I don't want a trunk tank, or a battery location tank or an aluminum tank in general under my hood. So has anyone come up with a solution? I have an.... interesting idea....

I filled my tank until the inlet was covered. Eventually I'll do one of three things: move the inlet lower, baffle the inlet or tank, or do the bypass.

I mean did it actually do anything? Mines pretty full already

It did for me. But I have the True Forged tank. The water still swirls, but it doesn't foam up like it did before.

Do you happen to have a video of the flow prior to the upgrade?

Prior to the water pump or the copper scrubbers?

Yes please Just the oem pump with no scrubbers. I'm trying to gauge how much liquid they are supposed to be moving

Hmmm don't think I have that :/... it was significantly less tho

probably want to find something other than copper. galvanic corrosion between copper and aluminum will result

I also think you’ll create electrolysis.

I recall something about two dissimilar metals and water from school….but that was a long time ago.
