911monty, even before I suspected my thermostat and/or water pump where bad and even when my radiators had just been cleaned, I was often sitting on the right edge of the 0 in 180 or just past the 0. This is why I would like to get my 986 running as cool as possible.
I am actually adding the 'S' oil cooler as well (forgot to mention it above). Perhaps, the low temp thermostat, and 'S' oil cooler, plus the center radiator is overkill?
I already purchased the center radiator (I got a really good deal on it), but maybe I will hold off and see how what kind of temperatures I get with the low temp thermostat and 'S' oil cooler. If I where to hold off on the center radiator, can anyone comment on installing the center radiator without fully draining the coolant system? Would I need to be concerned with clamping off 16 year old coolant hoses?
Thanks!
