RE: Overheating problems| Day Motor Sports article



Very good article - a keeper....................

https://www.hotrod.com/articles/robert-foleys-426-max-wedge-powered-1963-polara-overheats-gonna-fix/

 

 

Timing plays a big role - my 318 Poly set at 15 BTDC takes a long time to warm up - if anything runs too cool.

 

Stock fan - no shroud.

 

FlowKooler water pump + 180 degree Robertshaw thermostat

 

Radiator:  “Desert Cooler” aluminum 2 rows 1” tubes 14-16 fins per inch   (Classic Industries MB2352A – US Radiator AL035037ANDZ)

-Check the water sensor and make sure it is accurate.

- I use a Moroso high flow 160-degree thermostat.

- May need a high flow water pump.

I have a 528 hemi in my 65 Coronet. With fan blade and electric fan it still goes over 200 degrees at idle.
I read the below article about overheating.
Anybody have a comment regarding this article before I start over trying to resolve my heating problem?

I will check all these things and see what type (how many pass) radiator I have as well as pulley ratio, and thermostat.
It seems to make sense to keep water running thru the radiator for as many passes / time as possible to cool it before returning to the engine.

Thanks for your experience and comments.
