Well, I'm definitely not making 900 hp, I'd need 3 more engines to come close... But the flathead does put alot of heat into the water.
The 11 gallons would be all I would have, no circulation in the box, no other room for additional water storage. Already need to relocate fire bottles and build a fuel tank, no more room left.
Buddy, how much water do you have in your box? If you start with ice how warm does your box water get after a run, any boiling?
Sumner, I considered boxing in my existing radiators and circulating though them from another tank, but if I keep those radiators I can't relocate my fire bottles and would only be able to carry about 5 gallons of water for circulation over the radiators. I like your setup, just wish I had some more room.
Radiator in water is very efficient, considered doing a chassis dyno test with existing radiators dipped in some open water tubs.
