Let me clear one thing up: To me, 208* is 'hot' and headed for meltdown quickly, at least on my car. I know I can get away with higher temps, but do not wish to go there due to my engine's high mileage. In the third session at Birmingham, I hit 208* after about 4 laps, and decided that was time to cool down.
So, it's not as hot as some would think. But still...heading there quickly.
The new prototype *should* be in my hands shortly. It has been delayed due to an unforeseen accident at the radiator shop that is producing them. I'll have full pics of the install when it does arrive.
