[V8Vairs] cooling

[Denny Burrows]

thanks for the come back. cooling in the front,opening between parking likes. rad was angeled, just took it out, remount 6 " deeper and vertical in the car rad is cross flo and  has no eng cover, i'd rather listen to the motor. i come by the car in boxes. my trailer with a packed car full of parts, my pickup full as well.had the car 4 years. did engine overhaul,put the diff, trans, axles all in. car was a project for my sons [19 and 23] as well as me.the rearvent panel below the window has been open to 8" x 36". sorry but i have no pic's,yet.i'll have my son put them up in the a.m. this year  i.ve put 700 miles on the car . pipes from the rad go into the car down the fire wall under the car, then up to the motor. last week i ran the hoses from the eng to a barrel full of water, it ran 160/185. i put a 7 fin blade on for testing, also built a shroud for the rad.
 
 
again thanks
denny

Welcome to the group!


  Attach  some pics of the ductwork, etc.


We need to know how the Rad. is  mounted..  airflow paths, etc..


The parts you are using are overkill.. so it must be the setup.


Also, how long have you had the car... and has it always done this or just started?


  Note:  many "problems"  are not talked about by PO's..  ggg




Also.. 210f  is not too hot... just makes the car uncomfortable.  IMO
