ken, check the belts on the waterpumps I will bet you they are the wrong size, need9.5. A nominal 10mm belt will require massive tension to stop squealing and results in bad waterpump bearings and alternator bearings and mounts. restrictions in the flow will not increase waterpump radial loads but a overtightened belt sure will. mike
