Ok, so then the bimetallic strip flexes sooner allowing the clutch to lock up sooner. I wonder what the cut in temp is because if it is still before thermostat releases coolant to the radiator, I don't see how it would make much of a difference. On the other hand, running a 79C thermostat would most likely yield great results with the Sachs clutch.
