Yes you are reading that right
4th gear, 70 degrees ambient temps, no intercooler

The one that baffles me is the 111 degree CLT?! That's almost ambient!

Highest I’ve seen mine is 185 sitting at a stop light forever when it was 100 outside

[buguy]

Yeah mine usually runs 210 or so, but at a long light here in Florida it gets to 240 at times.

welp its been awhile so I guess ill update everyone. On Dec 10th 2021 my front spindle broke on the freeway at 5am on my way to work and i rolled 3 times. I somehow came out ok just busted my face up a little and hurt my knee but walked away.

I currently have my new project underway which is a 59 ragtop that is currently at the bodyshop getting ready for paint

[chriswillrise]

Some pictures of the new project
