[DeTomaso] Single or Dual Pass Radiators?

[michael@michaelshortt.com]

I have a 180 Robert Shaw installed I think ( it's been several years ),
before the refurb, hitting 220-230 was not a problem, many spews later, I
had enough.

It's the factory guage, no reason to think it's any more wrong now than it
was before :-)
