Re: 11:1 CR Race/Street Engine build

Guys I think the cooling could be a big problem for our engine. We have a guy over here who has a racing buggy (think you guys call them sand rails) and it has a SVX engine. He can't keep it cool even though his radiator is about 2 times bigger then our PBR.
He just brought a multi flow radiator. Should hear by the weekend if it fixed the problem. It seems that we need to keep the coolet in the radiator for a longer time to get rid of more heat.
I am not going to race my car till I fix the heating issue.
