LS Swap

[VPP]

I have an 1987 FJ60 with a 6.0 LS swap with 6L80 trans. Engine cooling temps are running around 210-215 degree's with ram air going down the hwy at 65-70 mph.
I have done the following:
1. Advanced Adapters radiator with trans cooler, 17" 2,400 CFM electric fan that runs constantly (shrouded to pull as efficiently as possible)
2. Heat sheilds on everything except the manifolds
3. I raised the back of the hood 1/2" for hot air to flow out
4. Synthetic fluids for engine and trans
5. Evans waterless coolant in the radiator system

Any ideas how to cool this beast down as I am going to Moab this fall and I will not have ram air crawling around.

Thank you,

Kevin

The Brain Engines of the LS series are more temperamental than the older engines and require a better degree of fine tuning. 210-215 would seem right for stop and go, or pulling under load, 195-200 would be better driving at 65-70mph, and if you have an automatic trans, get an oil cooler for it. If you haven't had the engine professionally tuned for fuel/timing, do it. Any after market parts you are considering make sure they are specifically for the generation you have.

Forgot to add a link so you some some info on the LS. What temperature should LS1 run? – MSI - https://mysweetindulgence.com/common-questions/what-temperature-should-ls1-run/
