Re: New Radiator for all-motor Mach

well darn.. another interesting thread i can partake in lol.. So my car was running warm as well and wanted to get hot before i changed and fixed a couple things with the help of my buddy(sic9250)

so my car has the following for cooling;
New Fluidyne triple pass radiator
Mezeire elec water pump
head cooling mod
new oem hoses and 185 stat
(Complete A/C system is removed)

due to the larger volume of coolant allowed i had extreme air in my system and took a crap tone of burping out of the crossover plug. but in the process also drilled multiple holes in the t-stat because oddly enough my lower hose was like sucking the hose to a shribble. I'd had never seen that before but then again this car has thrown me many curveballs haha.
I also turned my low/high speed fans on sooner because they were IMO set to come on way to high.

Now my car normally sits about 190ish but its also winter and 60* out. i had wondered because my compression is so high and the motor demands so much that i had something wrong but its great now.

btw, OP. Sick setup man, any vids or IG ?
