Griffin radiator and twin fans still running at 190-200?

Yeah but what do the fans pull? My fans will pull ~35 amps on start up, and only drop into the mid-twenties on the lower speed. That doesn't leave much. Also consider that your alternator is not capable of producing 65 amps at any given time. At idle speeds it's not capable of putting out that much. I forget exactly how they're rated, but I know for a fact that the rated output is not what it will put out at idle or lower speeds.

I run a 100 amp alternator on my car.

I think mine is 65. Chrome alternator. If I have issues I will just trade it up for a 100 amp version. I will keep posting here until I get it right and let you guys know what I find. I fixed the battery negative cable so tomorrow I am going to go for a short cruise and get a new inspection sticker. So that will be the maiden voyage with the new radiator and spal fans. Hoping it will surprise me. Spal told me that the sending unit I have is 185 degrees on and 165 degrees off. They have a higher one as well but they told me it is better to have them running constantly while the car is running. So I guess it will never see the 165...
