ALMOST FINISHED: 76 DUSTER

What did you make the console out of?

As for the cooling question, I have a champion 3 row radiator with the Ford Contour fans and a dakota digital (Brand Name) fan controller and my car would be right under 200 all the time. Warmed over 340. I think you have your fans coming on too early and having them run for too long. Here is what I would do:

1. Replace your thermostat with a mr gasket high flow 195* if you have a stant
2. Change your fan on temp to closer to 195-200* and off at around 190.
3. Also the initial timing seems awfully low to me. I have mine at 18 initial and 36 total.

Running between 200-210* is not overheating, but I understand the concern if it starts to climb.
