    I sure that we will get a few more responses... If I need to take a better picture (closer) let me know... Just want to make sure it is the right radiator before I have it flushed and checked for blockage... If it is wrong then I will just get a new al one with e-fans... That should fix my cooling problems...

    The thermostat I pulled out was a 195 degree... Montemedic: That is what I was thinking when I pulled it out. I haven't worked on a car in year probably over 12 years ago was the last time I even touched a wrench...

    Running hot

    Not sure on the guage stage I just got it so all it new... I did check the coolant level today it was a little low and there was nothing in the overflow container... I filled it up and started her up ran her with the cap off the radiator and seen the coolant rise and fall once the car was above ~190 so I would say the thermostat is working and so is the water pump along with the radiator not being clogged; however, it is burnin very very rich as the exhaust was burning my eyes just getting the car up to temp... Major carb issues... I think I need to fix that first and see how that effects the temp... Thoughts???

    I spoke to the second previous owner who had engine mods done and he said that he never had a problem with it running hot. That it has a new radiator and clutch fan and thermostat. Talked to the owner I bought it from and he also made engine mods see the attached rebuilt sheet. Are the walls to thin now?? Is that what is causing the heat issues?? Previous owner said he didn't drive it much after the rebuild to notice any cooling issues.

  11. You might try installing a new simultaneous dual-band wireless router as the 5GHz network would provide better service as there is less interference in that frequency range...

  17. Anyone know what the to seals/weatherstripping behind the quarter glass windows are called? One clips to the inside roof metal and the other screws to the outside roof metal.
