They claim they cannot change it due to they do not make them just sell them . Gary

Mine is a drag car so I start from the gage being at zero but warm , by the time I get through staging lanes & burnout and make a pass I'm pushin 160 degrees . So I'm hoping this will help tremendously . I run eight mile , 6.50's 103 mph . Gary Looks like you have a nice set-up ! Do you know where I can get the zip ties that go through the radiator for my fan ?

Do you know where I can get the zip ties that go through the radiator for my fan ? It cools just fine. Course mine is a street car and I drive it to the track. On hot summer days it is about 180 when I get to the track. It never goes over 180 even when racing and I only need to turn the electric fan on when stuck in traffic for a bit of time. But it sounds like you got a great deal on the rad you bought. Good luck with it. Ron Last edited by 383man; 09/25/10 04:16 AM.
