[Healeys] Which coolant/antifreeze?

[Oudesluys]

There is no need to add Zerex. It may help in extreme conditions (e.g. 
racing) but if everything is new/rebuild it is a waste of money. Make 
sure your radiator is rebuild with a fresh and uprated core, preferably 
with an electric fan,  and use an original SMITHS/Remax/AC sleeved 
thermostat.
