[QUOTE="Catmonkey, post: 15978266, member: 124025"] I got a plastic sleeve from McMaster Carr to put inside the hose to the reservoir to restrict flow, but my hose from the intercooler adapter to the reservoir was too short to pull that off. My reservoir is set back closer to the engine because of the larger C&R radiator. My solution was to thread the inside of the circled area with a 3/8" NPT tap and use a fitting inside to close up the i.d. [ATTACH=full]1507942[/ATTACH] I had a plastic 3/8" NPT barbed fitting that was left over from a pump for an outdoor fountain and it had a 3/8" barb on the other end. I screwed the fitting into the tee to where it was tight and cut the fitting flush with the barb on the tee. The i.d. of that restriction ended up close to 3/8". I can see coolant movement in the reservoir, but the coolant coming through the inlet is a fairly weak stream. Not only is this mentioned in the write up, but it also tells how to wire the pump to run at full volume, which using the standard two wire pump harness will not accomplish. [/QUOTE]
