Hi All.
My plus eight has the normal problem of getting hot when stationary.
I have opened the rear of the bonnet 40mm and fitted an aluminium rad.
Still have a slight issue.
Before fitting an oil cooler a guy at LeMans suggested fitting a smaller
pulley to the water pump to draw more water through the system.
With a standard 97 3.9 hotwire I believe I may have room on the pump to
try this, engine doesn't rev as high as a worked 4.6.
However before I start machining a billet I would like to check the pump
characteristics to ensure I don't end up with cavitation in the pump.
Currently toying with a 10-15 % speed increase.
Now the point . Can anyone provide a spec for the water pump, preferably
with characteristic curves.
Thanks in advance.
Dave
97 plus 8
