HI, Crap.. I'd bet I screwed them up...

HI, Mine is a SB. 318 Thermostat is/was new but was a cheap brand. Maybe I should change that to a Stant.. Are the Head gaskets reversible on the Small blocks? I think I looked at them and FIRC they looked the same on both halfs of a gasket. I think I have the old gaskets I'll look

HI, I just had a nightmare over night.. I did have the heads done as well as changing the cam.. Could I have installed the head gaskets upside down?????? Some car guy... I'll put a timing light on it today. I didn't do any jetting change. carb is a 450 QF.

HI, Just did some high traffic with lots of stops and it's boiling in the radiator. gauge went up to like 3/4 of the way.. 185* stat. Maybe I should bite the bullet and get a bigger radiator .. tho I didn't ever have that problem before the cam change? Once it cools down I'm going to check the...

HI, No clutch on the fan and no shroud? I don't remember if it came with one when I rebuilt it like 6years ago.. If it had one I'm sure I would have installed it back on...

HI, Yes I would say Check rear gears , easiest change.. I had 2:77' in mine and changed them to 3:08 and it made a ton of different s. With a mild built 318.

HI, OK I seam to think I could just turn the center shaft.. I didn't realize / think it was attached to the gear.. Makes scenes how else could the cam turn the distributor.... OK.. Not sure of removing the gear part?? Maybe I'll just fill the oil up thru the heads so it coats the lifter and runs...
