I have a Ron Davis. Great radiator for cooling during the heat of racing.

Open road racing with susstained speeds above 100 mph that engine will get hot in a hurry. Same with oil and transmission

That might be weather or corvette specific thing. But I have yet to see that in my camaro over here in Germany on tracks.
I am currently running the stocker with a big external oil cooler with my 1st fan temp switch set at 88c and the second at 98c. No problems the engine cooling . Just some heating problems with the M6 and nine inch axle.
