Stacked



had the Jack's stacks on for a while. took them off as i wanted to see how the car ran with a bottom prop. after some long,fast motorway* runs on warm days the max temp i saw was almost 90 deg (190 ish) this was at sustained 4000rpm,about 92 mph (sat nav) At cruising speeds of 80-85 it sits at 80 deg,around 3600-3800 rpm. i'm sure the ducting to the oil coolers helps.
check the bin full of swarf behind the car. all from my manifolds !


*all tests carried out on rolling road or autobahns,officer
