[QUOTE="kzite29, post: 16483530, member: 186342"] Thanks again for the continued support guys. To answer some questions: - It's not too terribly hot up here in Illinois at the moment, but I'm driving the car down to Texas in a month! To answer your question I don't think the ambient is appreciably different than times when the car has not overheated. - The U/D pulley for the water pump is more to balance the total serpentine length so you can use the stock belt and not have any issues with the tensioner. It's almost the same size as stock, so yeah, not much gain, but plenty of convenience. Will probably leave the same if I can get away with it. - Yes I jacked the front up a bit to burp the system. Here's today's update: I opened the crossover tube to top off after sitting for 24 hours and coolant pushed out the hole as I pulled the plug. Is this normal? There weren't any air bubbles, just coolant. That hasn't happened before. Ordered that Stant 180 deg thermostat and a water pump gasket off RockAuto today. Also noticed that Motorcraft water pumps are way cheaper than expected and all Radiators are way more expensive than expected. Fingers crossed on that one... [/QUOTE]
