Tim,

Something else to consider is that you don't necessarily
want water flowing fast through the radiator. If it goes to fast, the
coolant is not staying in the rad. long enough to transfer any heat out of
it. I suppose this is where a larger rad. would come into play, as it would
have a greater surface area to allow greater heat dissipation. I'm sure that
somewhere there is a rule of thumb about water flow VS. volume VS. operating
temperature. If not, it would be great if someone like Super Chevy would do
an article on it.  So I'm not saying that a high volume pump will not help,
just that it will not always help. Take it easy.
