What pullers are you using? I have the standard griffen rad that most guys use and flex a lite flx-420 dual shrouded pullers. My temps are high 180's and get to mid 190's if in traffic on a warm day.
i couldn't even tell you what brand, they're from a friend that works at an IC/Fan manufacturer in KY, he gave them to a buddy who built the radiator shield and mounted them. same radiator as you're using.

this car is not a daily or even a racer...its more of a show car.....
Let us know how it works out with the fan/radiator setup you go with. And yes, boost will do that to you. Nitrous was a whole different story, when you put it on the peddal you expect it, it hits and you can feel the power table top. This thing is almost too much, it never stops
it had the sts butt plug...made 460 with the auto. with the ky im looking for 700+ so its gonna be a big improvment. kinda gettin stalled on the build its getting cold in maryland and it sucks doing this in a driveway.
Starting working on the build again… Hopefully by the end of this month it will be on the street. I’m expecting the kit from josh @ KYTP in about 2 weeks. I got the front suspension together and the dual pumps in the tank.
started the car up today for the first time, only to forget that the oil feed line for the turbo isnt hooked up (made a mess, sorry epa) but still was nice to see... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8wqs...ature=youtu.be
