At idle and in town it will run 170ish, hwy it goes a hair over 180. I have dual fans from a concorde/intrepid. Not ideal, planning on a mercedes fan in the near future. If I turn off the fans on the hwy, the motor heats up more. My cooling system: Dual electric fans Griffin 2 row rad Milodon HV pump I also have the accesories turning as fast as possible, to get the most amps at idle for fans. I wonder if the water is pushing through the rad too fast??? AFR at cruise is pretty fat, 11.5. Dont think that would cause a heating issue? Any ideas? 72 RR, Pump gas 440, 452s, 3800 lbs, Corked, ET Radials,. 11.33@117.72. Same car, bone stock 346s, 9.5 comp, baby solid. 12.24@110.
