How do you make a big block run cool?
I've only had 2 big block Chevys....both 496 13.5 :1 motors....well built. I'm using a BeeCool aluminum radiator with 1 large fan, and a CSR electric pump. If I make one quarter mile pass, I'm at or over 200. I'm running a 180 thermostat. Any solutions on how to keep the heat down? What temp. is the danger zone for these motors?...Gen VI block, Dart 335 CNC aluminum heads.
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
