Dean: Just curious. What thermostat were you running at 190-225. A 180? Did you
change to a 160 during the warmer months? I've got a built SB and have to switch back
forth. The 160 runs about 170 normal and around 210 if caught in traffic. The 180
will run around 190 and push 225+ in
The 454 in my 70 runs at 190 most of the time and if it's hot and humid like
it typically is here in NJ during the summer, it will climb to 205 and hit 220
in traffic. Big Blocks are good up to 230, if it goes higher than that, then
you worry.

Hi Phil
Wow.. I would think just the opposite to be the fact... with the lower
temp Stat reaching open state at 160 deg. once the entire volume of
coolant reaches the
medium stat temp of 160 deg.. It would just continue to climb in
temperature... and the 180 deg with it's delayed opening
Phil,
I've tried both couldn't tell much difference. Eventually
both would level out about the same. The heater works great though!
I would have thought the aluminum heads would help your SBC's
cooling. I'm considering buying a set for my next BBC for that reason
along with the
John,
Just about every GM factory service manual from 1975-80 has the HEI test procedure; do
you know someone with a copy? The only copy I can make is a photocopy as I don't have
a scanner, but if need be I can do so and drop it in the mailbox.

Well, I went and did it. I bought a 502ci, 450hp 550tq Crate engine
tonight. A guy had bought it to put in a '75 Camaro, then lost interest.
It has never been run. The only thing done to the engine is the addition of
a high volume oil pump and a 7qt Miloden oil pan. Here is the link to the
You're really going to sleep tonight? Think I'd just set up a patio chair
in the garage and look :*) I'd think any electric fuel pump that'll
maintain 7-9 psi would be sufficient. I'd also invest in an adjustable
regulator like Holley or Summit has.
