. This car is always in a state of flux.
Also currently working on getting better airflow through the radiator. The 
car still runs slightly cooler at low speed, ie., read parking lot. Tells me 
that I still have air stacking up at road speed. Looking at the shrouding 
around the electric fan (radiator is completely shrouded), may open that up 
somewhat.

Check the voltage at the fan; ( unloaded and loaded ... running ...   ) 
that last volt or 2 makes a lot of difference , and yes shrouding around the 
fan is a big big deal... all air needs to come thru the radiator, not from 
the sides of the trunk (g).

Also, Redline has a water wetter that is a simple improvement, it seems to 
suck off heat from the engine surfaces better ( technical terms not (g)  )

Make sure a front license plate isn't upsetting the incoming air flow.

Try to get positive air flow over the engine ( and headers ) ; even a mild 
breeze may be all it takes ...   just don't let the heat stay in the bay.

just some trivia .. ken campbell, iouwho
