HOW TO DO AN ADVANCED SEARCH.

Hello,


What operating temperatures do you guys see on your conversions? What is a healthy range for the LS1?

Thanks,
Luke

My coolant temps are steady at 200F, oil temps have been around 165-170F, unless I'm in traffic, then they'll climb to 180ish.

I ran mine all Texas Summer (+100) and sat in around 190 to 200 in traffic.
I am running the Summit Radiator that has 30% more area than the Turbo.

Ok, thanks guys. Are any of you using the Griffen Radiator from Summit? Is that what you're talking about Vorsche?

oh, well. I bought mine now so it's too late. At least I know that the Griffen has plenty of capacity.
