Greg, with all this discussion of overheating and radiator panels, I thought
I would ask if you have any tricks up your sleeve for Series 1's. I'm down
in Hotlanta and it is, and my 39' is not very happy about it. I have the
coventry climax motor without a water pump. I have heard that some kind of
marine pump will work being monted inline on the lower radiator hose. Have
you ever heard or seen someing like this?? Any other cool(ing) ideas.??
