I race another orphan called a Capri and used to think my motor ran hot. It turned out to be a faulty temp gauge. I used a infrared temp reader which showed my water at only 180F while the gauge read 210F!

AL,

I'd like to see if you can help me out -
My water temps are in the 230F range - I've played with timing, thermostats and carb jets but it only seems to slow the car down and not bring the temp down. got any advice?

I'm also running a 100lb spring in the rear and am trying to find something in the 300 range that fits in the stock location - what are you using in the rear?
