    Normal Operating temperature with aluminum RPM heads?

    I remember looking in the radiator and the coolant was moving like a hundred mph....... in the spirit of full disclosure it was an AMC 390

    Normal Operating temperature with aluminum RPM heads?

    it's been years, but I'm sure I tried running no thermostat with the same hot result..... which got me to thinking I daily drove the car for over a decade after that

    Normal Operating temperature with aluminum RPM heads?

    saw it work for me....... 180 thermo wouldn't hold the temp down, would just keep getting hotter, tried another one with the same result......put a 195 in it, and it never got over 195......every situation seems to be unique, go figure

    Overheats on the freeway but not when cruising around town?

    I had a ratty 68 vette that did the same thing *** you guys would have cut the vette a little slack, it was a fast, ratty convertible with chrome header/ side pipes..... I beat the crap out of it!

    Overheats on the freeway but not when cruising around town?

    I also had an issue where a higher temp thermostat held the coolant in the radiator longer and cooled better than a lower temp thermostat or no thermostat at all

    Overheats on the freeway but not when cruising around town?

    prob not your situation, but I had an AMC engine that always ran hot....... finally pulled it apart and found the water jackets in the block were partially packed with a hard, rusty, carbon type material......... we dug it out with ice pics and coat hangers and sent it off to the machine shop

    Temp gauge reading

    back in the day, I had a 390 AMC engine that started running hot, upon some investigation I found the lower parts of the water jackets clogged badly with rock hard carbon looking material
