I agreed 100%

my buddies Cobra was running hot with a 5.0 EFI engine. After weeks of trying everything to cool it down, I ask him how much anti-freeze he was running. He said 80%. I suggested he try 20 - 25% anti-freeze. He did and the over heating problem solved.
Another buddies big block Cobra had overheating problem and part of that was to much anti-freeze.
We live in North Alabama and most of the time it does not drop below freezing. All our Cobras are in garages so we do not need a -40 degree protection. Just a little anti-freeze to keep everything slick.
