Thanks, Doug

80 degree. I also did a 9 blade upgrade, viscous clutch and Don fabbed me a shroud.

Saudi cars in the 80's came from the factory with 75 degree tstats

I had a 71c stat in the car and the dial barely came off of the blue, I've just installed a 75c it's running around 1/3 below the half mark. I've also done the 9 blade fan and viscous clutch. I'm going on a drive tomorrow I'll see how it acts then. I'm hoping Amy is coming with her "Best of the Best'' coupe for the drive.

Thanks for the responses, Doug

Honestly do not know what temp my Tstat is. I have the 9 blade fan and viscous clutch and a triple core radiator. my temp stays at 4 oclock in hot and cold weather.

Only had a problem once when the original fan clutch loosened and, well here're the pictures...

E9s can be like a boat 'bout another thousand.

71. Seems too low though, just out of the blue.. Didn't know about the 75 ?

Your gauges runs above 1/2 all of the time?

No, well below 1/2 at the 4 o'clock position. 3 o'clock is 1/2. 5 o'clock is cold. ;-)
