my 16 lb cap would lose fluid, i would use a 20+ lb. cap, your pressure side can develop around 15 lbs of pressure from the flow by itself, once you break the seal of the cap, you lose cooling capacity and must wait for the system to cool before you regain it.

the hose from under the cap should be routed to the catch can, 1 qt. should work. the other hose goes to what, i am not familiar with the fe but maybe should be plugged.


the thermostat can be had from speedway motors or stewart components, look for the high flow unit, i would start with 160.

nice rig, bet it scoots.

make sure the hose under the cap is routed to the bottom of the catch can so it can recoup the water if any is lost, catch can must have breather hole also.
