Lee,
I rarely have had heat issues with stock Hondas in the past since like you said they run cool compared to other cars. My challenge is the shaved head/higher compression on the D16Z6 is creating a hotter running motor than stock which has lots of power during the first few minutes of running, then slowly starts losing ponies as it warms up (radiator & coolant are new BTW). Here in FL the heat factor is more dramatic in the summer so I'm willing to try this stuff and see what happens. Little Beast is becoming very fun to drive as I slowly chip away at each issue one by one (ignition, timing, cooling, etc.). -George > That stuff sounds like Red Line's Water Wetter.
