More water circulation. If it's the cooling upgrade kit you are looking at the water pump is also 130gph as opposed to the stock 87.

The Turboed engines were getting "hot spots" and in '97 GM changed to address the problem. The kit is to help the rest of us:)

A kit? sorry, didn't know there was one, I was just going to go junkyard searching for one.

Is it worth it for an n/a motor that will see a bit of towing, around a 4000 lb enclosed trailer with the A/C cranked, :cool2:
