Thanks, Alex
You have to realize that too cool an engine temp can cause more damage than too hot at times.
ABC...aluminum,brass and chrome. They all expand at different heat levels. If the expansion doesn't take place the you get excessive wear...early engine failure

You need to be around 200 degrees...but for optimum power from the engine the tune may take it higher...

Being a racer...I'll charge my pack.
