Skidoo

Sounds like a plan. I was pretty surprised by how hot is was getting under there after adding the plates. Lots for a 3rd party to balance in plate design between protection and cooling for widely modified rigs. Also thanks to 2001LC for his...

Thank you

Should be good to get home. E10 gas, high temperature and high elevation are the things that most cause this. While at higher elevation if you can get non-ethanol gas and drive while cooler that will help a lot. As you get to lower elevations...
