If a pump creates pressure on
the outlet side(block), it would have a lower pressure on the suction
side(radiator).
In my Spitwad I have a warning light system that comes on if I loose coolant
pressure. I run a 2 1/4 diameter crank pulley & 4 1/2 on the pump & have a
pressure switch (7-8 psi) tapped in upstream of the restrictor plate (radiator
side). The thing gets buzzed up & pressure drops & the warning light usually
starts flickering on around 7500 & above.
