How Hot Are You This Summer?

Not at all, it cools really nice.

What about corrosion?
Will you change back in the winter?

Just took the car out for the first time this week, and ran about 210* after only about 15 mins of driving

That's with the Fluidyne, Mods below, and about 92* outside.


What's everyone else been running?

(please make sure your mods are there, especially any cooling mods) and what the temps have been outside.)

THANKS

been in the 90's here a few times and lot of mid to upper 80's. Only thing I have done is a 180 T-Stat and the chip. The car only saw over 200 once and that was at the track.

Most of the time I run 190-195

Yesterday was like the first day in a week it was under 100. For a couple days it was 103-106.

has anyone used water wetter or the like and see great results?

Is there an faq or tutorial around here somewhere for the high speed fan switch?

JR might run a bottle of anti-rust/lubricant, as well as a wetting agent if he feels like it.

If freezing is not an issue, not much more is required.

I use some water wetter every now and then and def some coolant in the winter. I flush out my radiator and put in fresh water every 2 weeks or so. I just look into the radiator now and then and if I see anything on the cap I usually flush it then also. Sometimes a rusty red looking muck appears there.
