Like I said though, I doubt it will this considering how small the X-over manifold really is inside. I truly believe it is simply too small to move enough water to be efficient for the LH side of the motor

Hope this X-over method works as you expect Tom, but just in case it doesn't... will it make sense to tap the left block (not head), connect it to an electric pump which works automatically at a certain temperature then to a small outside rad (bike rad?) then again to the right block?
This way you will be transferring the boiling water to the rad for cooling then inject it again to the right side.. am I making sense?
