speedo not working

cooling system flush

I want to flush out my cooling system as it's been a few years. will the chemical flush products available harm anything? i've done it to several iron block engines but I wasn't sure about the aluminum block.
thanks

oil pressure oil cooler

i was reading the thread on oil pressure because i have the same question about hot idle. my gtv6 is at 0 lbs. it drives me crazy! at 3000 rpm im usually around 55 to 75 lbs depending on outside and engine temp.

my question is has anyone tried putting an oil cooler in line? results?
