406 cooling set up
Hi all,
I am about to drop my 406 in my 84.
I have a 3 core aluminum rad to go in with it.
My question is this:
Do I stay with the stock manual fan switch and t-stat or do I lower them both. If so to what? ECM is currently stock and this will be a cruiser at about 350 hp. Also, I plan on leaving AC in.
Also some in put with what to do behing my long headers. Really dont want loud/drone but dont mind a little rev rumble.
Thank all

Most with perf engines on here seem to like sub 200F running temps
180 thermo and fans coming on sooner
