Yea with my 160 stat it ran cool, probaly too cool, just put in a 180 the other day because the 160 wasnt warming up enough, causing bad idle, now it runs fine, most people i know with carbed cars run 'without' a stat, and it runs like 170, at least thats what this dude down the street told me his does.
So you have a BM fan? the BM flex-a-lite works well with me, and i live in south tx, which is hotter than florida sometimes.
