    My car wont heat up on highway

    i know it does suck, but i can see at highway speeds that shroud has a lot of dead space, and the air just stays in the radiator, oh well lesson learned.

    My car wont heat up on highway

    well i took 2000xp8 advice and changed back to the stock fan and shroud. the car never got over 190* even with me beating it pretty bad. Apparently the mishimoto fans/shroud is a huge obstruction. Now i don't know what to do, im stuck with a $250 dollar electric fan setup that sucks, Anyone...

    My car wont heat up on highway

    I really never thought of that, it does seem to be a restrictive setup. Since Its installed I don't think I can return it, I guess worse case is I have to custom make a shroud, I do totally see where it could be restrictive at high speeds. Well I now have a new project

    My car wont heat up on highway

    ok the car is running around 210* without the a/c on with a new 180*thermostat, and the complete radiator kit posted previously. I put a new motor in the car and the stock radiator was not sufficient enough to cool properly so instead of piecing a kit together i bought the entire kit (radiator...
