I'm not sure if there is a "correct" answer but here's the question:
The Canton thermostat is only available with a 215 degree cutoff while the Mocal has 180 degree cutoff. I had found a post that indicated that the bearing temperature is about 70 degrees higher than the oil temp and that the bearings begin to experience excess wear after 250 degrees. Does anyone know if those parameters are accurate?
I like the Canton unit but am concerned that the operating temp may not be appropriate for a mainly street application. Any feedback or experience with either the Canton or Mocal would be greatly appreciated. |
