The circulation pump does a nice job keeping block pressures stable and controlling steam pockets in the rear cylinders. The small amount of drag produced is not worth the risk of a meltdown. I do realize that many use crossovers successfully but on long wide open runs my money is on keeping the circ pumps!

Boatfx, yeah, I kinda always thought of it as cheap insurance. Good advice I am getting here, so i will probably keep it on. Thanks....

The pump looks like garbage on the motor. Go with the cross overs. It looks cool and does the same thing as the recirculating pump. Keep the temp over 120 though. You need to get the motor to temp to operate at best performance. Any way you gain more room in front of the motor, especially if you run trannies.
