TD42 high performance water pump feedback

[Hodge]

Why do you ask Andy? Is that your proving grounds or something lol.
Another test when going that was is after Whittlesea as the road winds it's way to the right and up.... That always forces down gearing.

So todays been the warmest day since I had the pump fitted. 29C up north where I was and I thought I'd tickle the car up the hills through Kinglake. Lugged it up a long hill in 5th, and it maxed out at 89, prior to that it'd be well into the 90's, even on lesser slopes...
Once again as per previous posts here, once over the hill and on flat/downhill ground the temps dropped very very fast into high 70's . Usually settles at 78-79.
So far so good.

Next time you do a run mate give me a hoy so we can go together and compare.

Yarra Glen up to Christmas Hills is the favourite being steep and sharp corners to slow you down but from Dixons Creek up to Kinglake turn off on Melba is long and moderate steepness, pre IC I used to hit 500 + on that hill.

Towing was back to 3rd playing tennis watching the EGT gauge.

That hill is nothing. I can floor it on that hill and my egts wont go over 350c and water temp wont go over 100c. The hill up to Kinglake west from Whittlesea however....

Thats cute......

How so? It would be good to compare water temps while both doing the same hill, same gear same speed etc etc i need to go bush. Lets go out Sunday, or something.
