|  Is 210 degrees too hot? Is this too hot? Stock Water pump, FMS 3 core radiator, suprecharger, aluminum heads, no emissions, stock fan... With the A/C on in 100+ temperature, is 210-220 degrees too hot? Thanks |

| Above 220* is where I start to get concerned. 210* won't hurt anything. If my car goes up to 220* then I know something's wrong and if I don't pull over now and fix it, the temp is going to go through the roof, although most cars are fine running at 220*especially with a good stock fan clutch.

| 220* isn't gonna hurt anything with the engine but it definately won't be making it's best power. I would be sure to keep an eye on it to make sure it dosen't go to much higher than that though.
