Kirby, You're under the influence of Lucas. Two reasons why this isn't a good idea: 1. It's quite complicated and hence prone to failure. 2. The thermal inertia of a lump of metal the size of the V12 is quite considerable. To regulate its operating temperature very finely requires P-I-D control (and ambient sensing, and load sensing input..) I guess. Telling the stats to open up on the last two miles of the home run sounds like a good idea, though. Regards, -- Stefan Schulz jaguar@suaviter.demon.co.uk '88 XJ-S V12, UK version
