I did a little reading. Some coolants have low silicates, others don't. If you mix too much of one with the other, you lose some of the "heavy duty" corrosion protection offered by the low silicate formulas. My guess is these coolants have been specially formulated for engines with dissimilar materials such as an iron block and aluminum heads.

I agree with Tinker that you should be OK.
