That's just it, I am a 6MT so I should have plenty of water cooling capacity. My ideal would be to find a replacement oil thermostat that will open at around 210F rather than the OEM 240ish. To be honest, I do not race the car but I like little projects like this and I figure the extra cooling will only help the engine.
