why would anyone run a 195 stat ?? In the antarctic ?? IF...you had no fan...no shroud...but a decent radiator...at HIGHWAY speeds the temp would be close to the stat rating....EOS

I have a el cheapo alum rad that cooled well at highway speeds...but with an aluminum flex fan installed properly in a shroud, My 498 stroker would overheat in traffic. I installed a 7 blade clutch fan and it did zippo at highway speeds..."shoulda run cooler according to some" BUT it has done the job in traffic on very hot days...
