Suspension and cooling issues

[aaronmatusz]

First, I'll go over my goals for my car:
I'd like to be able to pound the crap out of my car for fifteen minutes strait without worrying about things overheating, blowing up or whatever and still squeeze out around 250whp.

I just put on the FMIC, Fluidyne rad, 550cc injectors, and SAFCII (see the full list below) and I now can boil off most of the coolant by putting the AC on...this is not the direction I wanted to take

Suspension:
My car was hit in the rear when I got it and I think the chassis is twisted a little. In the front, the camber is positive on one side and negative on the other, also I get the impression that most of the weight is sitting on the right/front and left/rear tires...what can I do about that? Sounds like coilovers would compensate...

How's your radiator cap? Spring still strong? Rubber inside cap cracked?

Is it over heating at wot ?

Have you tried a 180 degree thermostat. I had the same problem with the 195 thermostat and it fixed my problems with the FMIC blocking airflow. My temps were at 206 and they dropped to 179.

"How's your radiator cap? Spring still strong? Rubber inside cap cracked?"

Honestly, I never thought about that...I just looked at mine and nothing seems really out of whack but I've never seen a new one. I think I'll get a fresh one just to be safe.

"Is it over heating at wot ?"

The first time this happened, I had the cruise set to 75mph with the AC on, the following times I was pretty much all out racing, on the gas or on the brake for about twelve miles navigating some very tight turns, almost like autocross... I live for that stuff.

"Have you tried a 180 degree thermostat. I had the same problem with the 195 thermostat and it fixed my problems with the FMIC blocking airflow. My temps were at 206 and they dropped to 179."

Another good one that I missed! I know my thermostat is new (a stock replacement, I'm sure) but I don't know what heat range it is. I'll have to get one of those too.

Thanks everbody!
Heh, I wonder what else I missed?
