I never have any cooling problems with a 190 thermo and stock v8 radiator. I run right at 195 or so right where it should be. I also have an electric fan and shroud, but only because of my ac. Before that I had a Mustang II V6 fan, worked fine.
You probably need a radiator, not necessarily an aluminum one, just a new one. Sounds like it isn't flowing correctly. -CP
: Damn engine. I just changed the termostat to a 160 Mr Gasket high flow. It runs fine at lower speeds, but as it gets up in speed(i.e.65-80) it starts getting hot. Anyone got any suggestions? I know I need an aluminum radiator, but it wasn't doing this before I changed the termo. Bad thermostat? Too much water flow? It has the stock radiator and water pump. All suggestions would be greatful! Send email if ya want.
