    Ok guys so quick question ...do these elbows tend to blow out/seep/leak etc. more commonly during wot? Because after reflecting i remember the day before i spotted the leak i was testing her out in wot. Now its been a few days and ive been feathering her since and theres no more leak. I checked out the same leaky elbow and theres no new fluid, just whats left of the original stuff that leaked out before.

    Mine leaks on/off. No pattern I can tell. It can be cold, I'll have to move it from the street to the driveway, and it's already leaking a good amount. I did a short WOT getting on a main road(wasn't impressed after 4,500 rpm). I'll go check to see if there's a good puddle or not.

    Nope, nothing after today, and it got to operating temp.

    At WOT, the water pump spins faster, which should slightly increase pressure - but not nearly as much as simply hot coolant will.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
