Took these after driving it to town and back. 45* outside. It barely got to 199* at the water neck with a 195* thermostat! This was sitting idling in the yard.
199 was water neck, 159 was top of radiatorand the bottom hose was 150. The aluminium radiator is doing a good job on keeping things cool that's for sure.

I got the brass 3/8 vacuum fitting but no filter. I have to order one.
