Reverse Cooling?

Yes, and I was a data engineer on a TranaAm car that was used for a
number of tests. It works well BUT you need a higher flow pump, radiator
capable of handling the higher flows etc.

The REAL reason GM quit using reverse cooling is the lawsuit that Evans
started against GM for using reverse cooling and not honoring his
patents. GM lawers looked at it and said: lets limit our liability in
case we lose and not make any more cars with reverse cooling. Last time
I talked to Evans, suit still was pending.
