Chevy SB optimum running temp
I have a 34' Ford running a chevy 350 small block. I live in Florida so it's quite hot here in the summer. My engine runs 200 to 220 degrees. Is that too hot?
Thanks in advance for any information any one can give me.

200/220 is OK
what is your thermostate I'd run a 190 and see if it comes down but wouldn't be concerned at 200

Welcome to the forum. What radiator and fan setup are you running. Post a few pictures of what you've got, that will help.
