good luck, have a safe trip etc. maybe think about one step colder on the spark plugs, though a 4 core radiator is probaly plenty...

You've got my prayers, man. Let us know how the trip goes, especially me since I'll be making almost the exact same trip (Ga-Az) in January. Good luck and be careful.
