Removed my original math and redid it because you are correctd and I must have been brain dead .......

He left 15.5 quarts of water in and added 8 quarts of pure antifreeze. That now makes 8 quarts out of (15.5+8) or 8 out of 23.5 - that is 35%. Topping off w/ a 50/50 will never get you to a 50% concentration. Topping off w/ 100% will get you to the 43% you mention.
