I used Evans on a 428 and stuff worked well EXCEPT.
being really 100% GLYCOL which has a tendency to creep by gaskets (I am in the boiler business and knew this) I after about 4 months started to see some evidense of glycol on my plugs! I took out the Evans and issue disappeared. Your engine will not run cooler if anything a bit hoter due to lower heat conductivity, but if your engine runs HOT say 230 -240+ then EVANs is the stuff. Evans is correct in saying that the steam pockets are eliminated. I am still sold on it but elected to use standard water mixture instead. Do not have that car any longer but was considering going to EVANS with my SO427 which was running hot. Did some other things so no need now. But if I did I would watch my plugs.
