I swear by "Engine Ice" for the radiator. It definetly helps with the with overboiling.

I have tried lots of different oils through the years in my case and now I pretty much just stick to using ATF Type F as it gives me the best clutching action whether the motor is cold (warming up) or if am running the piss out of it.

Yea Engine Ice for the Radiator.

I run Klotz Flex Drive for the transmission. With atf type F you need to stay on top of it because it does get dirty faster.

For 2 stroke oil I run Klotz Supertechniplate. It is a good oil that combines the clean burning properties of Synthetic with the extreem load carrying abilitys of Caster oil. It is 80% Synthetic and 20% Benol Caster oil.

For break fluid use DOT 4. DO NOT use DOT 5 they do not mix and will make a mess of your break system.
