Fresh Water Cool kit?
 
Who makes the best BBC fresh water cooling kit? 540 C/I 9:5 CR AFR cylinder heads.
Thanks in advance!

We have an accessory kit that incorporates a heat exchanger for closed cooling. If you are looking to just add closed cooling to your existing setup look at Sen-dure or monitor. They both make a good system.

Thanks

I used the stock Mercury kit from my original 454 magnum on my 540. Works great.

I have a Monitor and have been very pleased. I cool the full setup (block and 496 aluminum manifolds) with a bravo drive and it's restrictive water pickup. No problems with about 35 hours on it this season.

One thing the Monitor touts is that it's a controlled by-pass thermostat setup - I guess it gives full flow through the block even if the t-stat is still closed. Supposed to provide even cooling.

I made my own. Heat exchanger from American Industrial in Illinois (they make Teague's oil coolers). The overflow reservoir is from a company called Lenco. Fittings from IMCO and brackets from local machine shop.
