GT40 is Mark II with 427 side oiler.
Couldn't get car to stop overheating no matter how much bleeding I performed. Followed Lynn Miner's advice and bought the UV550000 Airlift tool.
Process I used with the tool was:
- emptied coolant
- blew compressed air thru system to get any left over coolant out
- pulled a vacuum
- blew compressed air thru system again to get any left over coolant out
- pulled another vacuum
- filled up UV550000 coolant hose to get rid of air in line by using vacuum in system
- pulled another vacuum
- filled car with 19 qts of 50/50 coolant/water mix (427FE motor)
Will give it a shot next weekend and see how it works.
