Another Steam Line Question
So if you need them regardless of the induction would you still need them if you weren't running a water based cooling solution such as Evans Coolant? Or would it just be wise to add them regardless?

Re: Another Steam Line Question
You would still be running a coolant so I would leave them on it. If GM thought they were not necessary and they could save a nickel by deleting them, they would so they're there for a reason.

Re: Another Steam Line Question
Evans looks like it might work to reduce steam buildup, but it still boils, so...
Though not recommended, I've seen people block off all steam ports with no reported adverse effects. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Another Steam Line Question
I thought drilling and tapping the water pump sounded like a pretty good idea.
