Thanks my new project will be the 80e conversion and the 34" rad and 05 efan swap the truck is running warmer now I guess cause of the more heat the motor creates it is running about 50*s warmer or I jsut got the needles screwed up when I put the stainless overlay on it. Ill find out when I get HPT hooked up to it this week when Allen tunes it.
