Today they peaked at or just above 105º but came right down and stayed at 100º or a touch lower. It was a short drive and tomorrow I'll take a trip to get a better idea how temps are going to be under different scenarios. From what I can see so far, anyone will see a huge benefit by separating the systems no matter what heat exchanger is in the car. Sunday is race day! I hope I don't spin out with all this new powaaahhhh!

you can thank me woith 2 large bottles of puerto rican rum!!!
it isnt a necessity to enlarge the i/c pump because the i/c circuit is low pressure. as long as the bosch is working it should be fine. a remote tank for ice always helps but will soon equalize the temp in the system unless drained and refilled. the -10 * fan mod really cools the engine down as my engine temps were higher due to the supercooler blocking some airflow. on my 32 its a super tight fit to get it in !
