Okay - I am having heat issues with my engine especially when racing when it doesn't get an hour in between to cool down. My temp reads 225 sometimes and it just won't cool.

So - what I want to do is throw in a 160 degree thermostat - any recommendations on parts for that?

Also - how can I get my fans to come on sooner. They don't seem to come on until the car is at around 200-212.

Thanks!

Sorry if these answers have already been provided somewhere, I spent a good 40 minutes searching the forums and can't find what I need.
