I have an auto. I don't think running cool hurts anything. I just don't like the fact that the thermostat doesn't close once it opens. I never see it get below 170* when I'm driving on the highway or in town. A thermostat should close when the motor gets to the colder side of its temp curve and open up when it gets warmer and this is how it regulates the coolant temp. The way i have it i might have well never put a thermostat in as once it warms up it never closes. only reason i got a 160* thermostat is summit suggested it with the high flow edelbrock water pump. |
