As you can see, I live in the Islands where its always hot and we have mountains in stead is hills. I am running a B block slightly warmed up, a Lion Head, B water pump with out a fan. My secret is a Walker Radiator (3 13/16 thick) I can climb any hill down here, NO fan, and she never gives me a problem. She will run a bit warm if I am in traffic, but I have a back up electric fan, just in case. LOL I have never used it or needed it. Iceman
