can i have a drink? please? hahahaha seriously mate, ifits got hot enough to cut out from over heating, thats pretty serious..... our transit van once ran at 130 degrees, blew the head gasket, warped the head, and still got us 40 miles home! my race mini used to run at around 120degrees on the track, and never cut out once or blew a gasket.... for you to actually have it stop from over heating it must have been getting tight ;s which is some serious heat! expect a head skim i reckon what seats did you get? for which car?
