I have mezz on my 500 inch 750 hp pontiac   It has a Cleveland style head and I feed all four corners with -12 lines it runs cool in 100 plus days but I have not pushed it yet

Michael it right about all the electricals as that car has elect water and fuel pumps along with elect fan

I do like elect fans that are switched because you can control temp better especially in cold weather

>  Faster flow is not always better. Boundary and laminar flows set up when speed of coolant is too high. Coolant needs to transmit high temp to the lower temp radiator. The faster the coolant goes will be the slower that it can transmit temp to cool your hot block. Yes, some engines run hotter than others. Flow is important but restrictions and poor radiator performance are paramount. Would be rare that any type of fuel injection "not going to happen" would make any difference on cooling the engine. The timing will make a difference on cooling. An ideal coolant system is one that has consistent flow and an efficient radiator so hot pockets do not create and play their games of havoc on your mind and the engine.
>  I removed the two 1 1/2" coolant pipes that run from the rear engine to the radiator in my Bora and replaced them with two 2." copper pipes which aided in cooling better than switching around fans. Now the copper pipes are also a cooling tube.
> We just replaced the clutch in a 89 Porsche 911 with a Nascar engine 350/434hp? engine running up to redline of 7,800.

> Bill, I have an electric waterpump on my Chevrolet. Not a Mezier but very similar billet pump. Two advantages that haven't yet been discussed are - it frees up a small amount of horsepower. Same with an electric fan vs a clutch fan. Just less drag on the motor.  I mean underdrive pullies are made to create more flow at a lesser loss of power, the next logical step is no power  loss at the expense of cooling.
> 
> I would need to freshen up on my data but I believe the gains are enough that maybe some would consider them significant. maybe 5-10 horse? Also with an electric pump and electric fans, you can circulate coolant and cool the motor when it's not running. This was popular in my drag racing days to recover more quickly on cars that ran hot, after several passes, or would at least benefit from running much colder.

> ? Faster flow is not always better. Boundary and laminar flows set up when speed of coolant is too high. Coolant needs to transmit high temp to the lower temp radiator. The faster the coolant goes will be the slower that it can transmit temp to cool your hot block. Yes, some engines run hotter than others. Flow is important but restrictions and poor radiator performance are paramount. Would be rare that any type of fuel injection "not going to happen" would make any difference on cooling the engine. The timing will make a difference on cooling. An ideal coolant system is one that has consistent flow and an efficient radiator so hot pockets do not create and play their games of havoc on your mind and the engine.
> ? I removed the two 1 1/2" coolant pipes that run from the rear engine to the radiator in my Bora and replaced them with two 2." copper pipes which aided in cooling better than switching around fans. Now the copper pipes are also a cooling tube.

I also have read that modern radiator design has changed a lot of things, and that old radiator liked vey high flow rates which tend to add back pressure, and newer radiator don't care about flow rate, so a big single pass radiator may be optimal.?

So it's better than a good mechanical pump below 3,500, and pumps less above 3,500, so it's not the hot setup if you want to run an open road race at 5,000 RPM, but you can run two remote pumps in parallel and move plenty of coolant.
