Lol.... I don't run a thermostat either..... 2 unforgivable sins! :wack: :sign3: :banghead:
I am not going to touch the cooling system! This car runs super cool just like it is. I have a smaller crank pulley 5" I believe. 4 Core cross flow aluminum radiator, PRW 8 blade water pump, Viscous clutch fan. The car runs around town 170-190* in 100*+ weather. Stop and go traffic it might see 205* start moving again and it comes right back down. Coming down the freeway at night I have seen the gauge at 140-150*, maybe a little too cool. That is where a thermostat would help.
Yeah the install will work out fine. If someone had an electric water pump and electric fans it would make the install much easier.
