I've a bigger radiator in my '78-and an oil cooler. When Dave rebuilt the
engine for racing, he wanted to be sure it wouldn't overheat! THe other day,
I was out cruising the Toll Road (Hey, this is so. Cal-it's a strange thing
out here)-and we were doing between 5,000-6,000 rpms(for about 5 miles-up
and down hill!)-we were flying!!!(People were looking like they never seen a
flying Spitfire before!<BG>) It was around 65o. And the car ran just a tad
above the center line. I said a little prayer, thanking Dave for his
forsight at that moment!
