RE: radiator

302 with hardly any mods (look below) and the rad runs so well that after cruising around for hour or 2 i can get out and put my hands right on the rad and its warm at best. its only hot by the inlet and outlet.

RE: radiator

mine only got to midway on the stock guage, so i really dont know what temp it was

, 331, 180 t-stat, and stock radiator. i was on the interstate wot at 118 in 3rd (auto) and it started to get a lil hotter, so i back off to 70 and just cruised, then it slowly went back down between the 1/4 and 1/2 mark, where its normally at.
