coolant

probably a dumb question.. but to fill the cooling system on the v10 do you just add it to the over flow and hope it goes in or is there another place to fill?

Really not a dumb question at all. Some f'ers have bleeding procedures that if not done correctly will screw you up royal.

Yeah that's why I asked. I did how people said for my Mach1 and all it did was over heat bad. Did more research and found out about the 1/2" filler on the water neck that was hidden.
