Re: What do you guys think?

I'll have to do a search on here to figure out how to post pics. I think I resolved most of the overheating problem today. The P/O put in a cut off in the inlet side of the heater core to "keep some of the heat out of the cab". It was shut off and wasn't allowing any flow throughout the engine and back to the radiator. The antifreeze was just sitting in the water jeckets getting hot causing the extra heat. It still needs a shroud but I'll get to that in the next few days. The 454 turbo 400 with 4.11's will get up and go, a lot better than the R/T ever would. So far I love it. Now I have to start tinkering with it and later on do a full build.......Mikey
