[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15984294, member: 166576"] Our GT500s are closed cooling systems meaning the reservoir is a pressured part. Best to fill to the full level until you don't see any more air pockets escaping. Then start the car, let it come up to operating temp with the cap off the reservoir. Top off coolant as needed during this time. I like to rev my engine to about 1500-2000 RPM and hold for a few minutes, occasionally shutting of the car to let any air pockets continue to travel. When youre satisfied the car is burped, recap and let it cool to ambient. Check coolant level cold, fill to full and drive. Recheck level after next cooling cycle and check for leaks. [/QUOTE]
