they both had lots of holes in the matrix when I tried connecting them up
so just bypassed them again

I think if it were me I would try and offset the loss of coolant capacity with an upgraded radiator and water pump.
It's not fun to be sitting in traffic watching the gauge climb.

Yes I have been there and seen it. Turn the heater to hot and turn the fan on. Just wondering if there is a way of increasing capacity under the engine bay or something. Ot electric fan maybe
I have an auxiliary fan fitted in addition to the heater.
The only other way to increase capacity is an expansion bottle or another heater matrix in the cooling circuit which defeats the purpose of removing the heater.
Just my opinion

I have seen it mentioned that you could re-route the heater matrix so it is in the engine bay, acting as a small secondary radiator?
