dual loop...had to do extensive modifications ..but for harleyman was a peice of cake..he had to modify the back..put a shelf in the bottom front for the second radiator....he had to take the whole thing apart ..and re build it..what a job..so impressed ..black lights added as the final step..for one kick ass looking rig

lol after you OC it and then put it under load then tell me if you temps are the same OCed and under load as when it was on air, cause if they are then something is wrong.

If your load temps on air where 42c then why did you LC?

BTW 42c under load? with oc to 3.6? with air? do you live in an ice cave? or what is your definition of under load? people's idle temps are 42c.

@ DST4ME.....Not real sure what you are after..but it just appears you feel it so necessary to try and discredit me ...
 
Yes his on air temps were a few degrees warmer as expected...
 
Yes they are cooler on water..
 
No water was not necessary for a mild OC to 3.6...Is that what you are seeking here????  If so it won't fly with me...
  
 
Guys...guys...you're two of the most respected post'ers here...cept when yer ac'tin like the Clantons and the McCoys...what are the neighbors going to think Angry
