i ordered my fluidyne from summit yesterday. i also got two bottles of water wetter, and a radiator cap. do i need anything else for the install? what percent of coolant/water do you guys use? is it worth flushing the entire block while i'm at it?

also, i ordered Summit racings line-loc. its made by hurst, just cheaper. the guy told me that i can use it with anti-locks as long as i pull the antilock fuse. so basically, i'll install it, leave the fuse in all the time, but come track time, yank it out. So hopefully, better 60' times cause i can warm up the tires better. anyone have one? do i need to know anything b4 install?

OT: PISS ME THE F*** OFF!!!!!! i fell at work, and broke my arm... fractured my left elbow. the good news is that i don't need a cast, but i have to keep it in a sling for 4 weeks. the bone broke, but didn't move, so they didn't have to set it. But it sucks b/c i can't race like this, and it hurts to drive stick cause i can't hold the wheel with my left hand. so i'm stuck driving the explorer for a few weeks. at least its a 5.0....

For summer driving I use 70/30 water/coolant. Works well. If you find sediment in the radiator it would be a good idea to flush the block as well as there is probably sediment in there too. Chances are if you used tap water, you'll have sediment. Because tap (drinking water) has minerals in it that eventually condense into a sandlike substance. Make sure you're using distilled water (red capped gallons at any grocery store) when you fill your fluidine up.
