Hi guys,
I have been fighting with my engines coolant temp being pretty high for the last season now. It gets up to 215 deg at times while just sitting idle. I have a sbf 306 with AFR aluminum heads, Anderson N21 cam, Edelbrock performer RPM intake, Holley SS EFI System. I’m running 180 thermostat which I just replaced. It had a 190 in it. I’m running aluminum 3 core radiator, Mishimoto dual 12” fans with aluminum shroud. The fans claim to be 900 cfm each. They are running off a stat and relay that is set to turn on around 180. The fans never turn off ever but the system still stays around 190 -215 degrees. My timing is at 15 deg after TDC. The sniper also controls timing.
I haven’t been running it much this year because of this issue. I don’t want to chance messing up my heads. Any ideas??
Has anyone used these fans from Mishimoto?
The fans are the only thing I can think that would cause this issue.
