    Water??

    What is the most popular? Water only - tap or distilled. Additives - antifreeze/coolant, something like Royal Purple purple ice or Gibbs CSP.

    I always used distilled. If you don't have it what turned it around on my car was the 4 blade fan if your having a cooling issue.

          Not just any 4 blade fan will work.The GM 4 blade 405442 has much more pitch than the cheap chinese copys.The CV Products #1519 will also work and they have them in 15-17-19 inch

              Bill,
              Use regular water,a bottle of water wetter,the GM 4 blade fan,single pass radiator,25-30% reduction pullys(8000 rpm),and all the external water lines and you will be good to go.
