So. I believe I found this particular coolant, I should post the SDS in the other thread but. Yes it is manufactured in Illinois for Subaru and it is this:
That, and the basically 100% new coolant application.. very simple question: Should I use and add the Holts Rad Weld a.k.a. this stuff in the engine? Or is the complete remanufactured short block and heads with Six Star MLS gaskets enough to alleviate that concern!!

Because (non-turbo) Subaru automobile engines have what is called an, "Opened Deck," design, head gaskets can be prone to weeping some. (The decks on the turbos are not entirely opened, OR entirely closed. And yes, you absolutely SHOULD be using this conditioner in those turbo engines too!) This "coolant conditioner" prevents a weep that will soon resolve itself if given the chance, from developing into a larger LEAK, requiring expensive service. It is an eloquent solution that has allowed the engineers to produce an amazing opened deck (and semi-opened deck) power plant that truly IS a piece of engineering art. (At least, to a geek like me!)
