199-201 degrees.
Was driving home earlier today and saw my temp gauge shoot up to 235.
When I finally got home I looked underneath and noticed some debris. Took the hose out and sprayed the radiator and it was good as new. It really cleaned all that crap we got from the dust storm.

Dewitts Radiator
The engine temperature has yet to pass 205 and I'm in Southern California. The Dewitts radiator made all the difference in the world. Before, I had oil temps (not coolant temps) as high as 240!
If you want to reduce engine temp, I strongly recommend a Dewitts radiator.

Great info guys. I have heard a lot about dewitts radiator. My friend at work here built dragsters and all kinds of things says they are amazing. So thinking of that plus a 160 therm, with the ducting and the car will run cool on track and off.
