I was going to say, I think you need a higher flow water pump. that should help push the water through at low rpm's better. good luck

Good to hear things are turning around. No motor yet but i have gotten in closer contact with the party selling it. I wanted it this weekend but things just didnt work out. Its ok I could use a bit more money going into the purchase of the motor. Ive got a bunch of new ideas about what all is gonna be done while doing the new swap. Can you say Tube front clip with rear radiator and some other wicked goodies??? I can

Good new abot your runner dude

Ya I just need some extra cash for the material and I should be tubing the front and giving it a cage. The radiator in the back will also give me more room in the front to shorten it up some and giv better approach angles. I cant wait
