My car isn't overheating, or have a blown head gasket - no coolant bubbling, etc

it just runs hot. the thermostat is a checker thermostat. I have no idea what temp rating it's at but it's annoying, I know I'm loosing HP due to the temp issues.

Average Cruise Temp is 216 after a hard pull it's up to 223.

during the winter it might get down to 206 every once and a while.

I'm going to buy a Thermostat - once I get back from my Vacation, and will be looking for Fans at the same time.

I checked checker last night - and for 1 Flex a Lite Fan they wanted $159


I'll probably end up going Spal or something. Enes if you end up getting the fans off Ebay let me know how they work.
