Ok, I got my mechanical temp gauge installed and working.  Now the question
is, How hot is to hot???  It gets up around 180-190 when I'm sitting at a
light and sits around 170 when I'm on the road.  I figured since it is an
all cast iron motor these numbers are ok, what do you all think??  And, what
temp should I begin to panic and hit the shoulder??

Thanks
