drove the Notchback to the camp over the weekend and that Berg 1679<BR>runs a
steady 20 degrees hotter than its stock brother. So built engines<BR>DO
run hotter, and last less long. Its running Nonthenol now and seems<BR>pretty
happy with that but I finally got around to increasing the stroke on<BR>the
accelerator pump tonight to get rid of that occasional hesitation.<BR><BR>The
Joe Gibbs oil is pretty good to about 220F, at that point the
viscosity<BR>starts to take a dump, at least the 10W30 version, and
unfortunately at 85<BR>degrees out it gets above those temps in the
sump. Glad I didnt drive it to<BR>AZ!<BR><BR>With stock engines though,
setup properly, you really shouldnt be able to<BR>overheat it unless your
towing and even then, so long as your not constantly<BR>floored it would take
some work.<BR><BR>Keith</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

<DIV>You know Keith, if you're really that unhappy with it, why don't you
convert it back to a 1600? Or are you using "machine in" 88's? Seems that would
solve your issues with that engine.<FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent"
