Someone pm'd me asking what my water temp was while cruising, idle, etc. I realized I didn't really know what was normal for a NA mustang gt. I've seen my cylinder head temps go up to 205-210 when driving slowly or at idle. cruising it's 190 so coolant temp is probably a little less than that. If you have a temp gauge on your non-supercharged mustang, what does the temp usually read?

I have an aeroforce gauge by the way, that's why I can monitor cylinder head temps. It monitors water temps, but I don't really check that often, so don't remember what it reads.

someone with an engine coolant temp
gauge, just told me this the other day....

about 180 - 185* while the car is moving

it can climb up to around 210 -215* sitting in traffic

thanks, ignore my pm then.

Is that with a whipple or naturally aspirated?

hammeron i believe that was me i have the H.O. whipple. i asked both of u the same question because i didnt know who had a temp gauge. my car while cruising is around 180-190 while sitting it goes up to 210 i wanted to know if that was normal for superchargers?

hammeron

oh yeah how's it going mustanghobby.....

i got most of it right.....

mustanghobby

going good, but id love to know if those temps r normal for superchargers. when i was n/a my temp never went above 190 degrees

maybe another booster with an
engine coolant temp gauge, can chime
in and shed some light on the situation

i know my cluster h20 temp "gauge", sits where
it always has....before and after the s/c
