    Will do Bro. Thanks a bunch!

    OEM 2 Rows Radiator is still intact. (Newly Overhauled).
    OEM Fan Clutch was nakaweld/rekta before But I also replaced it just recently with a repairable type (replacement only).
    The second Condenser was already relocated in the front under the passenger side.
    The other Condenser is still in it's original location which is as you said parallel to the ground.
    And Am only using distilled water as a coolant.

    Sorry mods,- OT - Bros,- if the radiator fan is welded on the shaft,- then, aren't you bothered when running at high revs?

    Am using 50%coolant and 50%distilled H2O.... May Vanette Club dito sa tsikot

    My query, is the 170 deg. thermostat too cold because it can only manage to raise the engine temperature to 1/4.
    I assume it is in Fahrenheit, bro.

    170F is equivalent to (170-32)*5/9 = 76.7C, and so is the same temp trip point as the OEM thermostat....

    Well bro the only advantage I can think of for having the fan clutch welded by the previous owner was to lessen the overheat issue because the radiator was clogged then and other than that wala na. Disadvantage is maingay/maugong on high rpms and a bit high on FC.

    I didn't have the chance to go to the Last EB because of work constraints, though sayang kasi may inihandang hands on si bro macgyver.

    Thanks a lot bro. CVT, at least now confident na ako sa ikinabit kong thermostat na tama ang temp rating niya.

    You can buy thermostats at banawe, for a cheaper price without the profit of the Car manufacturer and casa.
    TAMA - Brand is made in Japan, It is a sales company of Nippon Thermostat Co. LTD which is the Original Equipment manufacturer of thermostat for major Car manufacturers. It is cheaper because the brand is direct from factory -distributor rather than going from factory - Car manufacturer - Casa.

    *kiantot,
