Currently I run water in the block. I read a post about the engine making more power wet as opposed to dry. In the past I have run my water pump and looped around and had a heater core just to cool it down between rounds, when I bracket raced an older car. My engine builder wants water in it as well.

I started a thread that eventually got into the subject. http://www.frontenginedragsters.org/forum/index.php?topic=312.msg1340#msg1340
As for me , I would never put a radiator in a alky burning FED. I run a Dart 230 iron head and a LIL M block fully filled with no water.
