    Potential improvements to the system made by going to a remote pump are being discussed on the other thread I promised to start.

    Do not confuse a worn out / need or repair coolant system with one needing a complete redesign.
    As someone commented a few posts back with new parts including an aluminum rad and lower current cooling fans the cooling system works adequately.
    Even with a 300+hp engine, it is fine for me with the ac blasting in traffic on a 90+ day.

    not to say it is a great idea having the engine and radiator at opposite ends of the car, but there is no getting around that.
