[QUOTE="SDW Racing, post: 2428083, member: 23086"] Typically, shorter tracks can generate higher temps because you are running longer in the lower gears. A track like Shenendoah at Summit Point, I am running 2 thru 4. WGI, 3 thru 5. Mike, I would recommend using something in place of the thermostat, you need to have some back pressure in the cooling system. You can use a thermostat housing minus the actual gate, hollow it out. I would also call the manufacturer of the radiator and get the specs. Do you notice any change in the car? Do you really know the system is hot and not just a false reading on the guage? I have a Howe aluminum radiator in my 95 Mustang race car and it runs at 170 to 190 all day long, even on the hottest days. [/QUOTE]
