[QUOTE="XFIRE82, post: 89542, member: 2292"] .....I have a stock 82. I kinda wish mine would run hotter as it stays cool all the time, and in cooler weather towards fall time it is actually cool in the car with the heater full blast cause the engine doesn't warm up enough. I put a new 195 thermostat in and still the same. Heat gun usually show top hose in the 160's and bottom 130's. This car has the HD cooling option. The electric fans are factory but I don't recall ever hearing them come on even with a/c on. Yeah in hot weather the temp guage will hit around the 190 mark. My thought for you is that if your car has the small rad in it, get one like the 82 has ( 4 row ) and add a electric fan with the temp sensor. Maybe that will keep your 72 cool ? As far as the heater core goes, my only experience was in my 67 SS 396 Impala, 12.5/1 compression. It would run hot driving around town. I'd put the heater on full blast and it would drop the guage about 10 degrees. [/QUOTE]
