My nephew recently built a 72 shortbed 4X4 pickup.  He put a 327 engine in it with some 305 heads to raise compression.  I do not know any details about the engine build other than that.  He called me and said his radiator hose is swelling up the size of a softball.  He claims he is not overheating.  I am sure the 327 is a Gen 1 and the heads are probably a Gen 2.  Is there any interference with this combo.  Could some of the waterjacket ports not line up?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  He is understandably down in the dumps.
