This is very common with strokers on small blocks. They overheat all the time. I have not seen anything much that you can do beside pulling the thermostat completely out to keep temps low but i dont know how you feel about that.




Here's what I have for my 416. Griffin aluminum Max Cool nascar type 26" radiator. Factory shroud. Thermo fan clutch. 7 blade aluminum(painted black) fan out of some huge Chrysler made car at the junk yard(Dodge Monaco I think). High flow water pump from Mancini but don't remember the brand. March overdriven serpentine pulleys. Factory style rad hoses. 160* high flow thermostat. I can drive my car in Death Valley if I choose. Normal cruising doesn't ever get above 160. -Bob
