Any of you guys running a SRT-8 or resto-mod with a 6.1 or 6.4(392) hemi. I have a 70 Cuda with a 392 fuel injected crate motor and my temp gauge reads around 205 degrees. Temperature seems to remain constant either at idle or driving. seems just a little hot to me.

Most modern engines run at 205-210 normally.

That is where my stock SRT8 Charger runs, 205 to 210 ish.
