Just 2 questions...

1- The removal of the Cold Start Warmup System, how do you do that? I don't want to do it, but curious as to how it's accomplished. It was done on my previous engine. Always wanted to know how.
2- A FCD would certainly reduce the life of the engine, would it be ok to have one on a freshly rebuilt engine? How much damage and how fast are we talking about here?

1) You can connect the two wires for the thermoswitch on the bottom of the radiator together. This should bypass the 3k warm up.

2) You shouldn't be making boost on a fresh rebuild, let alone allowing it to go to 9+ psi.
