running HOT!!!

recently had LT1 edit installed....

programmed the fans to come on at 180 and i havent put the new t-stat in yet but its running really hot, i cant even go down the block without it red lining...so im not even driving it right now...

is it LT1 edit or just the t-stat?

Are you adding a 160 stat or a 180 stat?

If you emptied your rad at all you might have air trapped in your system.

You'll have to bleed it out using the two bleeder screws.
