At some point they figured out that under pressure water boils at a higher Temperature (about 45 Degrees Higher!). The Pressure has allot to do with it but here is a link:

Before this the Radiator would loose water and everyone used a "drip bag" to help keep the engine at temp, remember the guys "boiling over" at the side of the Grapevine (or your favorite grade)?
