Well all I've taken the plunge just in the process off flushing the can am s water out and putting in preparation fluid to use Evans waterless coolant / also connecting up the heater matrix ( let's see iff it works in traffic )

Seems everyone who has posted so far is running LS motors I'm running a SBC . I've got the coolant in now . So let's see what happens had car running up to 95 degrees so far on tick over it seemed to take longer to get there . My aim is to be able to sit in a traffic jam without been in a steam train . Once rolling at 15 mph no heating issues . Unfortunately were I live suffers with traffic jams hence causing me issues nxt step is to remove heat from under the clam

Looking at everyone's posts the issue seems to be flow on the pump . When I had water and coolant in the car iff it sat on the drive on tick over it would gain heat and boil over . But iff I took the rear clamb off and sat on tickover the car sat at a constant 70 ish degree . This is making me think its a heat soak issue . I've put the Evans in to try and gain xtra time stationary . Soon as I'm doing 15 mph moving in clear air temperatures drop like a stone .

Well I seem to have a result had ultima on tick over today for about 20 minutes and no sign off boiling over temp hit 85 degree instead off over 105 degree so no puddle on the floor . A big thanks goes out to mark Webb for the hour on the phone giving me a hand and helping me through first bit nxt step is gonna be at the weekend to go sit in a traffic que in town and see now it pans out :-)
