Frequently Asked Questions and Answers

1)
Is it possible to install the Even Flow Cooling Mod on an 03-04 Cobra WITHOUT removing the supercharger?

2)
Why does the bottom of the stainless fitting have a radius on the bottom instead of square edge?
A)
The fitting was designed to "roll" if the install gets started cocked (not straight).  If the bottom edge was square and the fitting was being installed cocked, it would tend to bind in the bore.  This way the fitting tends to "roll" off center if the install isn't straight, alerting the installer.
3) Why does this kit route the coolant to the upper radiator hose instead of the heater core like everybody else?
A)
We did research, talked to engine builders, tuners, engineers, machinists, and monitored some very good "discussions" on Internet forums.  I then put together a "list" of what I felt would make this mod effective and slightly different from what is currently available.  That list looked like this:
-Cool the driver's head (#1 priority)
-Create separate coolant path instead of merging 2 into 1
-An install that could be completed from the top of the car
-An install that could be completed without dropping the transmission
We believe that getting the coolant to an area where it can be cooled is superior to routing it to the back of the water pump where it simply gets recirculated.
4) What type of sealer is recommended for the stainless fitting?
A)
Permatex Indian Head Gasket Shellac Compound is the recommended sealer and is commonly available at most auto parts stores.  This sealer was chosen because it cures to a sealer that remains flexible at joints and is rated for contact use with coolant, petroleum products, and steam.
