Mod bugs, I had a 3 radiator in my 83 Caprice, so modded it was stolen. I use the Redline
wetter water, 1 bottle in my pony. It helps my Merc Villager van, I can't tell if it helps
my pony car. Get mods that will help handling of your mustang.

Well here in Nevada, 100* is a nice cool day.

But there's no free lunch there. True, taking the water pump off will reduce the HP drain due to that, but adding an electric Water Pump will add to the HP drain by the alternator.

But it will give you better cooling while idling. But it would be more interesting to do the same thing with the AC compressor
