i would back purge the manifold and use the Solarflux on parts where you can leave it in like the exhaust system.

BTW: awesome build!

the Rice racing WI uses manifold pressure to spray the water in, as far as i know, his contact info is on his website (www.riceracing.com.au) or PM me if you want it.

Just curious, but are you going to be able to duct air to the whole cooler core or is a lot of it going to be missing out on air flow?

Just as a suggestion, I would isolate all of your IC and radiator mounting points with some type of rubber bushings to give you some "cushion" during the minor frame flexing and vibration that the car will undoubtedly see. Just my .02!!!
