Thanks for the Torques Pat, did you take the aluminum into acct? I am assuming if this were going into a cast iron manifold it would be higher? Same for the aluminum water pump. I have heard of people breaking/ cracking them out from over torquing.
Yeah, I don't think that sewer trick is going to work anymore. When growing up in NYC, I used to do the sewer deal with oil changes and draining and filling coolant. TERRIBLE!!!
we have all got smarter, at least in this area anyway.
I will go back on you tube and see what I can find on different things guys do for the coolant flush and fill procedures. I believe my coolant is the original and has been in there for 12 years!!! The same for the brake fluid, I just got done flushing and bleeding the brakes and clutch in the fall. My slave and master are shot because of the filth fluid I believe. I have got new one on the shelf ready to go in. I also bought a fire-sleeve for the clutch line that comes very close to the header IMO. Better safe than sorry.
