moved the rad. 3" two years ago, have no cooling problems now, also two years ago added a flex fan that was for the srt10 truck,,, flex-fan 183 i think, car runs at 182 @ 80mph to 199 @ 100 mph,, and that is in 90 degree Florida weather.. two weeks ago went to 140mph,cruising and temp went to 205, that is the hightest i have seen it. jim

note my IAT's were @80 cruising they are 75* at 140 they were@ 135,, back downed to 80 and the IAT's went back to 75.

my IAT's run 5 degrees below my speed ,this is from 55 up, below 50 my IAT's are from 42 to 50.
when i go to the track, before burn out my IAT's are 42 to 50 after burn out ( on line ready waiting for the tree my IAT;srun from 55 to 66.)

Nice!!!! I was going to say man, with the radiator that far back, there shouldn't be ANY cooling issues at all. That's damn near the same distance as stock with the V6.

Are the temp's you noted with the KC? Or was this a different setup?
