Run electric fans all the time?
A pic of a working, big-block pulley setup would be great :)
I am not interested in putting all that serpentine stuff on my engine - nor spending the $ it would cost, thanks.
I just called and asked. The serpentine system is 18% OVERdriven.
It’s only 345 bucks to convert if you just run an alternator. I wish I had done that when I bought my set up.
So my pulleys will be up for sale as I’m switching if that’s the only way to get the pump speed up.
A FWIW...any stooge can walk through the pits at any National Event and see all the Pro Stock, all the Comp Eliminator cars chilling their engines before every pass.
They must be the dumbest bastards on the planet to piss away power like that.
The fact is, again, for the umpteenth time, lower coolant temps make more power.
How low you can get depends on several factors, the biggest for guys driving their stuff around is at what temp does the heater become ineffective.
Other than that, the lower the coolant temp, the more power you can make.
