cooling the fed

If your build is really hot like fuel or a high output supercharged setup cooling isn't going to be easy. My setup was designed into the build. I went to Universal Inc of Humbolt Iowa, told them it had to be 25 inches wide and not too high as it is going into a front engine dragster with a 360 Mopar that, depending on the class could run as high as 500hp. The unit they suggested they said could handle up to a high output 429 in a full bodied Mustang and should take care of my setup . The outfit works fabulous! It has a 185 thermostat and you can run it all day long and it runs 185. The electric fan that came with it comes on when it needs to and shuts off when it isn't needed. I hope this is a help. see you at the Nostagia Nationals at Denton TX, Mildsteel.

One of many reasons I run alky,Don't need to mess with cooling systems. A little creative use of fuel system can keep motor cooled. Might have to change oil more frequent until get it all dialed in. But a few solenoids and proper jetting its pretty easy.
