Re: 250 wATER TEMP QUESTION

The engineers will tell us that there is a temp that is optimal for efficiency, but the seat-of-the-pants in us will counter that just about every time.

Radiators, fans, fan clutches, and shrouds should all be considered, in addition to any issues with timing. Having the fan correctly placed in the shroud will make a difference in how the air moves through the radiator.
