overheating

RE: overheating
ight i solved the over heating problem
one i had to reconnect the fans to the radiator, someone messed with my car and unplugged so i figured out why they werent coming on,
and i put a new thermostat in so they kick on earlier
i got a thermostats so they kick on when it hits 160, so now both are always running, the hottest my car is getting now is only to half way point and stopping
i also had to readjust the idle, when me and a couple of guys rebuilt the engine, the idle was set to high, so when i started it, and left it in park or neutral, it idled at 2000 RPMs i readjusted it to idle at only 1100 rpms
so yea, if anyone had the same problem i had heres how i fixed...
im looking for new hood vents, cause the old ones were solid, that factory ****. i want something to get me more airflow and allow my engine to cool off when sitting still....
