Default Re: Coolant to Plenum Delete

the problem is without flow ,air will get trapped. think about it air goes to the top, but with no flow it gets trapped and once the engine gets warm you get steam pocket which can create more heat than the coolant. I you listen to what those that have a lot more knowledge on these motors than you are trying to tell you . ITS NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE. since you are in texas call Corey henderson in New Braunfells (210 8676286 he is one of the 5 most knowledgeable people in the country on these motors . Maybe you will believe him when he tells you that if you want to bypass the throttle body it gives you absoultly no power gain at all. Moving the MAT sensor to the air dam will do more good and is easier.. the temp inside the engine compartment will conteract your attempt at heat reduction. I know what your thinking but I tried it and saw no gain. In the end its your car do what you want . and find out for yourself. jmho
