Looking for opinions:
My mod GP292 is overheating and I loose all power. yes, I am running free air. Its a competive motor against the SR292 till she heats up!!!
I did have one piston ceramic coated. But I tore that one up b4 I could tell if It was going any good. Several guys I spoke with at run the SR292 have said that I will never get the heat out of the GP292 unless I put the fan back on. While that is an option, I would hate to cut the hood and run that fan shroud.
what do you think about having the head and cylinder coated?
Any opinions on using any of the heat dispersion coatings that "claim" :
Being able to move and control heat is of tremendous importance. Excessive temperature can lead to metal fatigue, boiling fluids, damaging metal expansion, reduce electrical efficiency and a host of other problems. Traditionally dealing with heat has been handled either by expanding the radiating surface, constructing parts from materials that are more heat conductive and using the color black. With advances in thermal management methods additional ways of enhancing heat transfer now exist. TECH LINE has developed a Thermal Management System ™ . Individual products such as TLTD can be utilized by themselves or in conjunction with other coatings to manage the flow of heat. TLTD is capable of transferring heat faster than the bare metal surface. While TLTD does make use of the color black, TLTD is more than a simple "black body" heat emitting coating. TLTD includes ingredients that also contribute to increased heat flow. Combining these properties with increased corrosion protection and the thin film application technique, maximizes thermal transfer capabilities. Effective on Brakes, Intake Manifolds, Cylinder Heads, Oil Pans, Radiators, Intercoolers and … more.
