brad penn is good til 280*. my 360 block is short filled and I see 250* often. no oil cooler.




Not to resurrect an old thread, but Dave, what do you call a short fill on your block?

I went to go pour fill in my block today, was going to do to the bottom the freeze plugs, till I got there, popped out the freeze plugs and realized there really is no material to fill below them.

It's looking like im going to be doing to the bottom of the water pump bolt holes just below the water pump ports...probably going to end up with an oil temp gauge too now (another damn gauge to worry about).
