    what al black and heads are you speaking of? you got a cast iron everything under the hood lol

    all of GM's cars and trucks are made to run at 210 or so, where the engine runs its most efficient.

    if you were to drop a 180 in, it would run as hot as it does now being your fans are not tuned to a lower turn on temp.


    i got my fans set to come on at 185, run a 195 t stat, car runs 175-180 moving, if it sits and idles a long time it will still get to 200 or more.

    98 Buick Regal GS, F body brakes, Caddy STS wheels, tinted tails L36 bottom end, lightly ported heads, 1.95 roller rockers, headers, gen 5 N* 3.0 pulley, FSIC, 42 lb injectors, a BrandonHall rebuilt trans, DHP tuned and AEM water/Meth injection https://goo.gl/gpV5kW
