This is my favorite topic of all of them. You cannot have too much flow. The "not spending enough time in the radiator" will cause it to get hot is not true. Either that, or all of the heat transfer studies, research, and papers written at the University of Minnesota (the leading school on heat transfer) since 1887 are wrong.

The physics in that radiator, are the same as the physics of a radiator on the moon. I say this as there will be others that will list exceptional examples to this theory. But physics are physics.

That is all easy for me to say, I've a friend whose engine overheats and just can't figure out why yet.

Best of luck to you.

Two simple reasons engines overheat*, not enough radiator, not enough air moving through the radiator.







*This is assuming no other problems, timing, water pump moving enough water, other mechanical problems.
