I put a Stewart water pump & Fulidyne in the stang and it really made a difference :nice:

I do not have an after market temp gauge but the difference is one to two letters to the left of where the needle used to read before the new stuff.

It was about 92 degrees the other day and the needle was even with the left side of the N on the gauge during a 70 mph cruise with the AC on. I'm running ud pulleys btw.

Both parts gave no probs during installation and everything fit fine. You can't always make that statement when installing hot rod parts as you all know :banana:

Every summer since Ive been on here, there are a few guys that upgrade the radiator. Between forum guys modding the cars, and the fact that are cars are approaching 10YO, it is a MUST mod.

Do you have 180 stat and the TwEECer set to control the fans.??

Just to the Left of "N" in "Normal" should put you just at 180*.. (I have both gauges, and I always compare)

I do use the Tweecer to turn the low & high speed fans on sooner but I did not do anything but bolt the parts on so the improvment is a result of the new parts only.

I am running the same 180 stat that I had before the new stuff.

I have seen some say that the Fludyne did not make any difference for them but for me it did. Stewart says on their site that their pump flows better than the stocker. Maybe the fact that I replaced both parts is what gave me better results than others.

Thanks for the info on the stock gauge.
