Great for a day sail on the Harbor which I will do in the next hour. However, it does make driving a hot car fun. There is not enough cooling capacity in the stock radiator to handle hot climates and have to stop and go because the temperature does not go down only up. So the next step is to re-core the radiator. The local radiator guy knows the problem and for $500 will provide new core using the old tanks which will give at least 50% more cooling capacity. This is a SKI purchase. Spend the Kids Inheritance. Then I will think about wrapping the exhaust manifolds and headers to stop vapor lock.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">What do you think about Push and Pull?
