Not going to turn the boost up just yet. Going to try and be consistent with the Pinks race coming up this Friday. They Ill turn it up a bit more. Wont even try 18 psi without the APS revised high boost ducts. Kit runs very well. I have zero leaks and drivablity is done. Only thing is my car runs a little on the hot side with the ac on. And we havent got to summer yet. But I allready have a good idea of how to tackle that when the time comes

that is the reason that I pulled the PTS kit off to start with
I drove last night and noticed that it was about 10 degrees warmer than the PTS kit when going down the road
does it run hotter when you are moving or setting still
the PTS kit did fine when I was moving but it ran hot with the ac when it was sitting in traffic

Well guess have a few options..swap out radiator but not sure if aftermarket rads are thicker and if will still fit in there. Notice eldebrock makes a new higher flow waterpump.
Of course go to 160 stat and set fans to come on sooner. And not sure if there is room for any pusher fan or other fan in there. Guess have to see what is needed and be watching to see what you guys have to do if anything. My car is street car don't want no overheating problem. Last summer my 99 ta started overheating pretty bad it it turned out it was just a plastic bag that got sucked up between condenser and rad.
Oh that stuff redline water wetter can drop temps a bit also.

I turned the heat on wide open and it dropped down to 185 in about 5 miles
I will eventually put a 2 core radiator ane maybe a high flow waterpump

Im probally going to put a LT1 rad with A4 connections for my tranny. Relocate my tranny cooler.
Relax it has seen a MAX of 194 F with my electric water pump setup. Of course this is at a outside temp of only 85 to 90. You have to expect more heat with a 402 AND FAT *** INTERCOOLER in front of it.
Its working well. I am getting a little tired of waiting for this high boost duct.
if my car runs hot with the AC I am going to be so pissed off
that is the reason that I pulled the PTS kit off to start with
I drove last night and noticed that it was about 10 degrees warmer than the PTS kit when going down the road

I'd have to post pictures, and that is asking alot of me right now cause of my work schedule which is everyday until we startup and hoping this week we will have oil in and start circulation (Refinery). If you see it you will see the idea behind it, but basicly it deflects the air off of the FMIC and away from the radiator and condenser.
