Thanks! Far as I can tell without measurements, looks about the same as the silla

Sorry for the delay in getting the pic to you. It was a busy weekend.

Dan7,

For your reference, i am running 188 to 194-deg F at highway speeds with the new Nissens, new gray 180 thermo, new fan clutch. Temp may run up to the occasional 197 to 204-deg when idling (depends on ambient temp and whether air-con fan is running). I have my UltraGauge pegged to sound an alarm when above 220-deg.
