Hey guys, I don’t have any news on the blown motor but I did get my car back and drives great, made 630 whp and 485tq on 13psi. the only thing is my cylinder head temp is running higher than used to , before was around 200-208 normal driving and now it is 210-223 I get a 160 thermostat should be getting it installed today , ford racing told me those temps are fine and others have told me that they are high Im just unsure on this. i haven’t gotten on the car yet other than the dyno but it feels nice drives perfect. If any of you have any info on the cylinder head temp pleases chime in .

While cruising i find 200-208 to be normal. 210-223 seems a little hotter than normal for cruising. They might get hot like that when making pulls but not during cruising. That doesn't mean it's hurting anything though.
