Current draw is overly high... and it would probably flow way too much water, way too fast.

Flowing too fast will not allow the water to pick up the heat properly, and will not allow it to cool properly in the radiator. Thus, hotspots and overheating become imminent.

EDIT - disregard the high-flow remark, forgot to xlate GPH into GPM.

Current draw is still too high though.
