Thanks for the information. Anyone use a 195 degree thermostat on a six pack big block? i have and won't again. the real issue with a 6pak is getting the intake too hot and boiling the fuel in the carbs. regulate the heat to the intake if you're using the factory cross over and try a 180 thermostat, unless you're driving in Minnesota winters.

If you go here there is a decent write up on tuning six paks, there is an even better write up but that is not being published six pak tuning use the carter street pump.... if you follow that guide you have a very good chance of your car running right If you follow some of the advice in here...well good luck esp the 195 thermostat is too hot bs....no in reality a car like that is not tuned up properly so i am calling bs on the play @sogtx is one very accomplished six pak tuner and we happen to be friends but don't let that fool you. He will tell you the same that i am telling you...use the guide- it works and run a 195 thermostat-explanation is in the guide six pak tuning

440-6, stealth heads, Lunati 60303, 10CR, iron intake, stock exhaust manifolds, M4845 and 180 thermostat. Starts right up, idles with slight attitude, runs good.
Suggestion: try to find OE/NOS fuel pump pushrod; some aftermarkets will wear prematurely...DAMHIK...
