Overdriven pulley how much is too much?
To Summarize for the final time:
I still stand by my observations that if the water goes thru
the radiator way too fast my car takes way long to cool after the
run down the track especially if you have a stock radiator. Now if it
roared thru the radiator again and again in a loop and never entered the
engine = Perhaps. BUY it does not - It goes straight thru the block look without
near as much cooling which means that it has little ability to cool the engine as it
is NOT much cooler than the engine itself. Less difference in temperature = Less
heat transfered from the engine to the coolant.
Also the Hotter my race car is when I pull in my pits the longer it takes
to cool. The heat may transfer quicker the hotter it. BUT it still take time
to get it down to get to the cooler temp where it transfers slower of course.
But you waste a lot of time to get it from the higher temp to the lower and it
is impossible to recover the wasted time.
Often between passes later in the day in eliminations = The is very little time between rounds
to get your car cooled down and if your car is not consistent you will be putting it on the trailer.
And that is the Facts just the Facts!
Big Fancy Words and Theories not based on real experiences
do not make your car win races or keep
it from overheating at a traffic light. Today it is 110+ in our
town in the shade. but there is NO shade and my Street/Strip cars
(High Compression) cars are cruising right near 160 where the Thermostat
opens are your cars?
