You HAVE to have a sizable coolant supply for it. I fried two because I tee'd off the heater hose and there simply wasnt enough cool water going into the heater, and the element fried. Either figure out the lower rad hose or pull from the block drain, or make a block drain.

These things are serious a pain to set up but they are pretty rewarding.
