Default Ignition and cooling on 40 re?

I placed a heat shield in front of the ignition system. This mustang really doesn't have a great amount of room in it for all this stuff. Will this installation be ok or should I try to move it inside the fuse?
Thanks,
Craig

Should be OK. We recommend using the Mobil MX2T at 32:1 for the life of the engine in your particular installation. The CHT must be 180-220F, if higher, it is not cooling properly.

Thx for the help Mike. I found the Mobil one oil at a local autozone. It was 3.49 for a half pint. It's a really clear oil. Is that correct? I'm also going to build the baffle system you recommended.

Thanks again,
craig
