Its better to have as much water as possible. 70/30 better, 90/10 much better

We don't normally drop below freezing around here so the only real reason to use anti-freeze is for the corrosion inhibitors.

Nato my radiator just cracked under the high temps my manifold were bringing to it. If your gonna buy a new one i suggest buying an all aluminum one so this doesnt happen to you if your gonna spend the money anyway.
