The question was: "Does nitro cool the engine?"

Quoting from an article by Don Nix, founder and former owner of POWERMASTER FUEL.
"Hardly a month passes that someone doesnt call to ask, "I hear more nitro will make my engine run cooler. Is that true?" Nope. The higher the nitro content, the higher the operating temperature. Fortunately, in most of our sport engines, the difference in operating temps between 5% and 10% is negligible."
