My big block sits on 180 to 190 most of the time but sees 200 if stuck in traffic for extended period some times (not often). Are these temps OK ? I use Castrol edge oil 30 to 50 weight changed regular.

Big blocks can run hotter than that without any problem. . 67CamaroRS/SS Sep 15th, 08, 06:43 AM I wouldn't worry unless it starts to get to 230*-240*, IMO.

Steptoe Sep 16th, 08, 01:50 PM the heater will help etc....but bottom line u dont have a problem |
