Overheating -- Corrective measure questions.

What temp thermostat did you go with, Kent? Also do not remove that front air dam, dammit. lol That's helping you. It does exactly what you said. Keeps air from going under the car. It pushes air that would normally go under the car back out in front and right into the grill, givin the radiator more air flow.
It is a 160 high flow thermostat. Not sure the number but it was a stewart-emp. I will replace the dam after I get the cam straightened out.
