Sorry guys. My keyboard decided it needed a cleaning at the most worst
time.

Anyway,

I would like some suggestions on cooling my newly built (10 miles) 302
Bronco II. As some of you may know it is weel built. .040 over, TRW
forged flat-tops, 650 Edel. elec. choke carb. worked heads, cam, headers,

custom 4-core radiator, and brand new EDEL and motorsports top to bottom. I
installed a 190 degree therm. to keep the temp up a little. I have a 16
inch electric fan on the radiator. I am not sure what it will do on the
long and short highway trips but idle in the driveway it stays on about 225
degrees during a 90 plus day. ALSO the fan therm. is not kicking on until
very late. i think it is a 180 but you know how long it takes to get the
radiator temp. up that much. Is this unacceptable or should i look at
finding some way to add a flex fan? Should or can I get a 140 thermostat
for the electric? I am very tight on space and could not easily find a flex
that would bolt right on the water pump when i went looking for the electric
fan.

One more thing. I have a shallow pan on a C-4 that should have had a deep
pan on it. will this make the tranny run good for a few minutes then not 20
mins. later? maybe not holding enough fluid or letting it heat up too
quick. I do not have my cooler hooked up until next week when my lines and
fittings come in.

Thanks

1987 Bronco II 302
