Re: Sideways Thermostat in my 350
A picture would be nice. But it's been over a week since your original post. Have you found anything yet?
BTW, my truck uses a $120 aftermarket aluminum radiator (Murray) that's listed for six cylinder and 305 trucks. It works just fine with a 350, even on 95-100 degree days. Typical coolant temps are 180-190 on the road, and 190-200 in traffic. Also have a fan clutch with 17" fan, and the fan blades are 50% in/50% out of the shroud. Water pump is real GM, and t-stat is a high flow Robertshaw model.
