I've got an engine thats been running really hot (they tend to do that when you bore them over and increase compression) and if this stuff lives up to its claims and all the hype I've heard about it on other forums I think I'll give it a try.

Water Wetter Super Coolant® is a unique wetting agent for cooling systems which reduces coolant temperatures by as much as 30ºF. This liquid product can be used to provide rust and corrosion protection in plain water for racing engines, which provides much better heat transfer properties than glycol-based antifreeze. Or it can be added to new or used antifreeze to improve the heat transfer of ethylene and propylene glycol systems. Designed for modern aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze systems.
· Doubles the wetting ability of water
· Improves heat transfer
· Reduces cylinder head temperatures
· May allow more spark advance for increased torque
· Reduces rust, corrosion and electrolysis of all metals
· Provides long term corrosion protection
· Cleans and lubricates water pump seals
· Prevents foaming
· Reduces cavitation corrosion
· Complexes with hard water to reduce scale
Thinking about picking a bottle of his stuff up but I'd like to hear from more people who have used it. I'm weary of additives, especially ones that make outrageous claims like "drops your cooling system temp by as much as 30 degrees!," but people on other forums swear by this stuff.
Edit: I might also mention that I am using a regular copper/brass radiator on the car right now but I just bought an aluminum rad and a 180 degree thermostat that I will probably install today. With the regular radiator and a stock 190 (?) deg, thermostat it runs up to 212 degrees and if I get it on the highway if it will just keep climbing. Crazy part is it runs cooler in traffic than it does at speed. So I'm thinking my regular radiator is clogged or something:crazy:
:goodjob:
