The temp are running between 205-235, normally right around 215-220. I have been driving it around the street at roughly 1%-25% throttle with littl bursts, but not into high rpm's. It runs and idles great, stalls every now and then when at idle and I do a little stab, as it comes beck to idle. I am sure that this is just part of the break in process though.

I can already tell that it will be a screamer and will get great mileage, it runs forever right now. I finally had to quit because I didn't want to piss te neighbors off!

Looks good though.
awesome , keep me posted
