Default New coolant ?

Anybody ever use this Evans waterless coolant ? I was at the doctor today and I brought a cope of 'Corvette' Magazine (A good read) but this Evans coolant is waterless and it is good forever. I wondered how they could make a coolant you never need to change ?

It's been around for a number of years now. I've heard many good things, but it's a little pricey and pita to change out (getting rid of old coolant in engine block and heater core, etc).

I never could keep my CR 500's from overheating until I used it and all problems were solved..... It is really good stuff and worth every penny.....

Have not used or heard of anyone that has used that product. It may be good, but I have not had any problems just using DexCool. I did not take my C5 to the track so can't say if there would have been a problem with the Dexcool in that situation.

This is interesting. Might have to try it and see how it reacts to the Arizona heat in the summertime.
