I'd ditch the thermostats. Turbulence for no reason. Less you take this beast out in winter months.


Bummer they don't want to work with you to figure this out. Just makes a better rad.


Best of luck!!!
Bore diameter is 3.328" so no huge bore here. I'd like to keep the stats in if I could because I do drive all winter.
If enough people think I should remove them for the summer months, I could certainly do that.
Anyone want to add their experience with no stats???

I'm just pissed that they won't good on it after they "assumed I couldn't fit a larger core"
I think it's a BS excuse.
Let's see what I can figure out
I don't need my motor at 180*, but I don't like 210* either.
Thanks Tinker!
