That range at that speed with those rpm's is not just acceptable, its actually pretty nice.
Stock engines with stock cooling and trannies run 375F at 60 mph when all is well with the mixture in that stock engine... The nice thing is that the given temps don't rise much at all when speed and load increases. Big difference with a stock engine... I know these differences very well, as I run CHT sensors on both the 1303 and my daily type 4 with stock engine/cooling. |

380 degrees scares me, the next thing I get for my car is a decent CHT, now that I have my oil temps under control with an external cooler.

Burn-out and run at EBI-3 against the turbo-type 1 at about 6:00 minutes into the video.
The whole vid is worth looking BTW! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnP-t...eature=channel |

I don't like the VDO HT gauge at all, I think the delta digital one is much better? It has compensation for the signal wire to the gauge I believe, that the VDO unit lacks...

Actually it was just fine, even without the much needed extra caster I still need to adress; I even had time to check the speedo
No wind, flat road also helps a great deal. |

Just back from a 'last-minute' Ring visit. It was a great sunny day, not too busy and we had great fun. Did 4,5 lap today with a passenger!

Now that is a great shot. Sure wish I could run over to the ring take a lap or two.
