with theses crazy headers in the engine compartment and the super charger this runs hot..82deg outside water temp at 190 on the gauge....at the header collector 499 degrees, header pipe at the head 733 degrees, tstat housing below the thermostat 184 degrees, fuel float bowls 120 degrees, radiator 167 degrees engine side, ign coil 174 degrees, super charger case 122 degrees, intake 177 degrees.
 
do thoses temps seem ok?..its never puked out from over heating, just when sitting in traffic temp climbs to 220 then its starts to run rough then dies, temp readings are after i went to a electric fuel pump, and a return regulator, and moved my coil away from the header...
