Really -- 475!? At least I get to learn something on this board! My
switch is probably original on that car, got it with 28k miles a few
years back. I don't mind, I drive slow and easy enough it never
comes on. I've always depended on the oil temp gauge anyway and I
like to keep it in the 270 range. Even with the Judson it is not
exactly a rocket ship. The big Weber helps ... this one has been my
toy for non-stock although Judson never recommended the shrouds be removed.
That car is actually for sale (with lower shrouds included):
