<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 10pt" lang="EN-US">My TR8 is running way too hot about 212F at full speed and at idle
the temps are getting that high also. I have no idea to get them
down.<br>Radiator core is 68x48cm x 5 cm. I suppose that should be enough.
I've experiment with different restrictor plates with no change. Changing pump
speed didn't help either. The difference between radiator in and outlet is
10°C (50F). Not enough I would say. Maybe making the pump more slower? It was
running on a ratio of 0.8 slower than crank, currently 1:1 speed. </span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Any
