350 too HOT!
I have a 1937 Ford with an RHS 350. I've had the car about 12 years and had cooling problems forever. During that time I have replaced the radiator with a Walker Corbra made for this application. Next I put on a edelbrock aluminum high volume water pump. After these parts still had problems in traffic. I finally replaced the mech fan with 2 electric perma cool 12" puller fans. Together these fans are supposed to move over 3300 CFM. Now the car runs a little hot around town, 190-200, but more importantly on the highway it runs even hotter especially on a hot day.
I would really like to take the car to the Turkey Rod Run this year, just can't get there without melting it down.
Any ideas would be greatly apprieciated!!!
My grandfather, mom's side, drove a 39 Plymouth coupe when I was about 4 or 5 and I thought it was pretty cool and I loved the tail fins on the 49 Cadillac. I drew cars when I was in the 5th and 6th...
How did you get hooked on cars?
