Al,
I understand your system and it seems like sound reasoning. The
reason I believe many of the Rotary builders run higher pressure is the rotary
does stress the cooling system more than the Subaru. The extra BOIL-OVER
protection rather than the simplicity of the system wins out.
Raising pressure to raise boiling temperature seems more effective for
over-all cooling than to add chemicals that reduce heat transfer while raising
boiling temperature. No practical coolant works as well for heat transfer as
distilled water.
The temperature you see on the gage, is the temperature of the coolant
touching the sensor bulb. Not the coolant temperature between the spark
plugs.
Lucy, come up here. My view esploded.
