[QUOTE="bluzuk80, post: 489208, member: 879"] Update After bleeding what I could out of it at the pump outlet and steamports I took the fitting loose at water pump and added about 1/2 gallon of fluid. fired it up, bled some more air out. Let it warm up till fan kicked on at 195. Then I picked up front end to 75 degree angle. Took exactly 3.5 min to get to 220. let it back done nearly level and cooled back down to 195 in less than 30 seconds. Most of the air has to be gone for it to cool that fast. Im sure I still need to plum steam port to water pump but thought that was good progress. Really don't wanna plumb it all the way back to radiator. [/QUOTE]
