[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 4394663, member: 6247"] Your temp test on the road doesn't hold much water. :read: When you're on the track your car is not necessarily traveling that fast. Meaning the cooling efficiency won't be what you're seeing in your test? Plus you will be driving in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears (posibly 5th) depending on the track? :idea: Remember you are at WOT about 80-90% of the time you're on track! :-D Now to your temp questions. Your oil will typically run hotter than your coolant. A low of 200 and a high of 260. I don't like seeing oil go over 260. Mind you I've driven mine at 285 plus with Mobil 1 and it gives me the creeps! Your coolant can run anywhere from 180 to 230. I'm pretty sure your car will start pulling timing somewhere around 220? Can't help you on the IAT. My track car is N/A. And my Shelby was on the track in very cool weather and I don't/can't monitor IAT. Hope that helps? YMMV :thumbsup: :coolman: :beer: [/QUOTE]
