I, as a matter of routine, give my engine a once over with an I.R. gun before I put the car back in the garage. Usually, I've just returned from a full temp run which is easy to do here in Florida during the summer. I was wondering if anyone else did that and, just for the heck of it, what kind of temps do you see on your exhaust manifolds - specially near the down spouts. I have always shown about 100 degrees more on the passenger side than the driver side, even though I have changed a few things like wiring open the heat riser butterfly for the summer. My water temps, both at the thermostat housing and slightly upstream from the housing on the hose are w/i one degree of the thermostat - and the engine runs perfectly normal. I even did a vlave adjustment since taking note of this, but that made no difference.
