    Interesting!

    Motorads have worked well on all of mine and those that have followed. Curious for your results.

    Has anyone put decent mileage on this radiator and can provide some feedback? I am looking for an upgrade on NA engine with stock t-stat.

    Ok, cool. Yeah I don't have a sc, just looking to cool things down. Typically, running between 190-194 daily and higher, around 199-203 on hwy, loaded down on a hot day.

    That was similar to mine. Coolest mine would ever be warm was 190. 200-208 in traffic.

    Now I average 181-186

    Cool, looks like I'll get one. Now need to decide on a t-stat. Keep the OEM or go lower.

    This is a regularity. Maybe the particular brand is the issue, as there have been people with faulty actuating ones. Maybe just how much flow it allows even when working well.

    The 160° Motorad T-stat works extremely well. I either have a thread with the part number, a picture, or someone else has that part number.

    no you need an URD adapter and you have to trim the factory plastic housing.

    Never over 200. Normally in town 180-185. Driving the AZ hot deserts up hills never went over 200. Mostly 190-195 on highway. I also have the infamous URD 170 t-stat and supercharged. Used to get up to 210-220 when I was NA on stock radiator under load on hot days.
