coolant system test kits ?

Anyone have any direct experience with either the Pineapple Racing, or the Atkins Rotary coolant test kits ?

Specifically, which one is best for testing with a pulled engine or with the engine already in the car.

Thanks,
:-) neil

Both of those are used to test an engine out of the car. Great way to make sure you didn't make a mistake assembling an engine. Every builder should have one and use it!

A regular coolant system pressure tester will test the entire coolant system with the engine and cooling system all connected. This is a great way to make sure your entire cooling system is working properly and you aren't getting leaks from hoses or weak hose clamps or a leaky radiator etc.
