    Pre - Ignition

    Took my car to get it dynoed and a chip burnt however the tuner couldn't do it as he said there was pre ignition when he had it on the dyno.

    Electric Flexlite Fan Now not running as cool

    I have a 180 thermostat in the car.....not a 160 like I thought. Anyway, with the 180 in it the temp at idle is 195 degrees. Is this a safe range ? What does a stock 5.0 run for temp at idle. Maybe 195 degrees is OK and I'm concerned over nothing. On a side note, would changing my stock...
