454 temp?
reading another thread had me thinking about the temp on my 454. Mine all warmed up stays at 190* even sitting in traffic. When it hits 195* my fans come on and bring it down to 185* is that a safe temp to be at? why do guys go down to 160* thermostats? Wouldn't the warmer temps help the motor with gas burn a little better? I know my fans don't turn on in my ls1 until it reaches 215 degree (from the factory) and off at 190 but that because its all alum right?
