racer47 replied to the thread S197 3V Fabman's build; How did we get here?.Yep, 300F oil is fine. Nascar also runs 250F water temp as the standard. They don't get worried until 290F or so, at 30-35 psi. (see full post)- stevbd reacted to wdrlaw's post in the thread What did you do to your Boss 302 or S197 today? with
