Re: What's Normal Temp for '70 C10 396?
I don't trust the stock temperature gauges. I have a built 402 and had the same issues you are seeing. First thing I would suggest is to add an aftermarket under dash gauge to get a more accurate reading. If in fact you're running hot you might want to play with your timing to see if it will help. Big blocks do run hotter, but I am uncomfortable with any reading above 200 degrees. I'm running dual 1600 cfm fans but with the stock 4 row radiator.
