Another great idea to help underhood temps is wrapping the exhaust manifolds.

I don't think theres much else you can do.




that's my thinking, too. i was debating getting in on the GB, but i don't think it makes much sense unless i was going to send in headers and a Y-pipe.

How to fix that problem? Bigger rad and water wetter to keep the coolant cool which will bring down those engine temps.



good suggestion!
