Default Re: Water Pump Flow Rate

Believe me, I'm not throwing out the baby!

What I'm trying to address is the basic reason that the V8 over heats under longer load periods. If you don't know the cause, you can't do any work a rounds to it.

You can't change the design but, it helps to understand the design. That picture of with the 8BA heads, installed backward, I'm sure is a attempt to get a engine to have a more stable flow.

Has anyone tried to route the flow to the back of the block, by restricting the front transfer holes? It seems like the reversed 8BA heads and restricted front transfer holes would help, maybe a lot in long loading cycles.

Tinker, those 21 stud heads look awesome. Do you know anything about them and who made them?
