Cooling system capacity?

Recommended Posts

Gonna be doing a complete cooling system overhaul soon.  Radiator, water pump, silicone hoses and clamps.  Just curious what's the capacity of the 02 cooling system?  I want to get enough pre mix coolant for the job and then some....

 

Thanks!

You should need just under 2 gallons for the stock system with the block and heater well drained, so 2 gal will leave a  bit for top offs latter.

If everybody in the room is thinking the same thing, then someone is not thinking.
