One of the first mods always suggested was a 160 thermostat to run the engine cooler. Think the stocker was 185. Modern engines are running much hotter and still make some amazing hp. What's the thoughts on this? Alky injection really cools the intake charge down so can we run the engine hotter and still make higher hp? I know one of the reasons to run the engine hotter is to evaporate the water out of the block which doesn't happen if it's run too cool.
