Re: Running a bit hot,,,Question!



They do make reproduction fan shrouds.  I saw one at Carlisle.  I'm sure it fits the 64 and 65 B-Bodies but not sure about fitting 62-63s.  Cost was $250 but I do not think that included the brackets.  You need to get the brackets which are also reproduced. 

I don't know the name of who is reproducing those - anybody know?

My 440 in a '65 Belvedere overheated at low speeds.  Solved it when I put in a fan shroud.

Hello to all,,Question!
 
My 440's seem to be running a bit hot,,it's a 1971 and i was running a 180 degree thermostat,and so just yesterday i changed it over to a 160 degree. What is the best or proper thermostat to use on that 440.
 
The radiator cap was a Stants 13 psi and i changed it over to a Mopar 18 psi that i hand as an extra. 
It keeps blowing out antifreeze into the reserve tank every time i park it
What is the best or proper radiator cap to use on a 440 of that year.
 
 
Thanks,
Jay
