WOW - in winter?

You have a much wider set of "street" guidelines than I do. My car never sees rain let alone be driven in the winter. With no choke, headers and full 3" exhaust it takes a fair amount of time for it to warm up unless I let it heat soak.

I want, no detonation, not overheat and not to loadup while idleing. No power accessories on my car so a big nasty idle is ok.

I also run 4.10 gears so am I out of the street category? (prob go down to 3.73's over the winter)
