Also why GM had a proving grounds out here
SO.......I would really like to see you idle for 15 minutes after a 20 mile cruise (engine at full temperatures) with AC Full On and a digital Readout of Coolant Temperature........

Or.....better yet....

to compare you Spal and Dewitt set up to my Ron Davis Set Up....catch the temperature at just above 100 deg F in the evening and run that test idling for 15 minutes.......I got 101 deg C on the Digital Readout.
