>> Any one ever tried water wetter?
Not to be picky, but antifreeze/water mix IS " wetter" (as far as heat
transfer goes) !! This is one of those cases where more is not better. A
mix is better than straight water or antifreeze -follow the label.

I did this too, but I used a thermostatically controlled fan.
Most of the talk in the early Brickline articles centered around various
ways to increase airflow through the radiator. It seems the engine
compartment is not conducive to good airflow.
