Well, the 69 that I am working on is improving. It is now down to 220 degress, setting at idle. The engine is bored ,I think to 60 over(I forgot what the engine guy said, I'm gettin' old) and has 10.5 to 1 comp. The car (per customer) ran at about 180. This is a little surprising, since it calls for a 195 degree thermostat and is a Big Block. What's your opinion and what else can I do to get it lower. This reading is with a mechanical guage not the dash guage......Hmmmmm, maybe I ought to hook the dash guage back up, it may read 180, we know how acurate they are..........Steve
