Re: SVX Engine cooling "Again & Again"

Quote:
The fact that a flow has been stated for 6,000 RPM, is surely a sign that cavitation within the pump is unlikely.
I don't mean to sound like a non believer but centrifugal's pump curves don't double the flow when you double the speed. "Subaru has got slack and cooked the books".

By the way if you look at the manifold on the car water goes from the left bank throught the throttle bodie and in to the manifold on the right bank. The only way this can happen is if there is a pressure difference from one side to the other, eg a major restriction in the centre.
