When I first built my R3 W-9 it was on gas and it never had any heat issues(it was a drag race only car)... what will the engine be used for... I did drill and tap the top centers on each side of the block but never needed any more cooling and when I switched over to E-85 I had to run it in the lanes to keep the temp up

I drive a 900hp W8 headed 9.00 deck R3 on the street with zero cooling issues.
I have traveled over 30 miles on a summer evening, with a combination of highway and city, including a few illegal displays of acceleration and the temp never topped 180*.
To paraphrase Colonel Kurtz , " that's my dream.......that's my nightmare." I won't be near 900 h.p. , but if I can scare the women and children , I'll be perfectly happy.
