With the 3.2L PAG put a temp. sensor on for use by the engine computer -- maybe that was the hottests cyl.? Or maybe they just wanted the computer to see an average?

I've also heard that the two cyls. closest to the front run hotter due to lack of cooling as the body blocks the air stream. -- or maybe it's harder to radiate....

- I hung for many years with a real NYC movie, commercials, MTV, teacher at the NYC New School producer.. who would talk as if life was a production in most conversation.. an he told me he laughed the hardest at my replies.

- and my stock CIS EGT was never more than 40deg or sometimes 50deg difference between the coldest and hottest exhaust tube.. and the CHT was even tighter between the coldest and hottest. The rear 2 were never ever the hottest. It would vary between the 3/6 & 2/5 for the slightly hottest. So figure the 2/5 & 3/6 were maybe 25deg difference for EGT.. CHT were tighter
No info on the 3.2..

Wonder what difference the carbs will make? The Pope at PMO said my oil temp will decrease. Which I think is impressive because the engine should produce at least another 25hp with the carbs and new cam..

so I'll be cool with more fuel, I think...........Ron
