NMattison;

I have played with water pumps-pulleys and radiators for two years to get my car where I could drive in parades and around town without overheating..... One BIG mistake is putting underdrive pulleys on a street car. They are strictly for race applications only..... Your crank pulley should be the same diameter or no more than one inch less diameter than your water pump pulley and you will have no problems....

Tried three radiators and four or five electric fans before figuring out I just was not turning the water pump fast enough... Very expensive lesson but now I know better....
