[DMCForum] Cooling.. Snake Oil?

If the cooling system is running properly, the
radiator should have no problem keeping up.
Running too cold is a bad thing too, that is why the
engine temperature is regulated by a thermostat. The
coolant in the radiator can be much colder than the
engine, but the engine will still run at the
temperature set by the thermostat. If you exceed
that, then there is a problem in the system.
No need for any "snake oil".
