I had my car at the track this weekend with ambient temp about 60F. I was doing about 15 minute circuits and engine temp was about 240F. Is this normal to be this high?

The air inlet has a tendency to collapse as well. Accufab and Analogdesigner both offer stiffeners, just different approaches. (Viagra won't work according to Bony).
Note to self. Self, stay the hell away from fjpikul & Bony when the topic of Viagra & Stiffners come up in the same sentence.:ack:ack:ack

Probably not. Lots of discussion on the Forum about this in the past Do you have the stock muffler and a trans cooler?

The water pump is VERY efficient - search for threads involving collapsed water hose coming back from the radiator. Stiffening springs in the hoses may help.
What RPM's were you running?
I do have a upgraded stiffener (whipple). And yes I do ride the upper end of the RPM range because that is were the HP is. How will a trans cooler reduce engine temp?
I was just cleaning her and noticed that it had boiled over out of reservoir cap.

Just to be clear, is this only a racing problem or an overall problem. As far as a fan problem would running the air-conditioning provide a clue?
