5ktq Radiator Update, and a Type 44 tip

[Mike Veglia]

Oh no, not at all. What I meant by "not using any coolant" is no coolant
leaks/consumption so far :)  Sorry for the confusion.

> Mike, do you mean that you're running water only?  If so, your water pump
days are are numbered (a week or two at best), the pump uses the coolant for
lubrication, I recommend using at least a 20/80 split to ensure water pump
longevity, and a bottle or two of watter wetter (can be substituted for
coolant) BTDT a few times in the race cars.
