I had originally bled the air with the car just sitting. After I hit a few things, I was losing coolant rapidly so I was adding on the fly and BLEEDING on the fly, engine running. Bubbles were all over the system. Once I just let it sit there for a bit then bled it, no troubles at all. I couldn't keep the temps right before I bled it properly, it was always running a little hot, but not too hot, once the bubble were gone, perfection!

I just hope the new one will be able to cope with 300hp...
