My Daytona (Shell Valley #27) motor use to run HOT!
~180* on the freeway, +220* in stop/go traffic! Full race cam, underdrive pulley, built for the track ... very hot in the car!
Just had the 347 rebuilt with high perf street cam, added new fan shroud, new ~2700 cfm fan, new Mr. Gasket 180* t-stat, new two speed fan controller, new larger serpentine crank pulley, new reserve/overflow tank -
Fan comes on at 180 and great in stop/go traffic now, up to 185 so far (temp outside in 50-60-low 70's), and freeway runs about 150*. I'm sure the freeway temp will come up in the summer ... (but only 200 miles on new motor so far)
