thank you.

Well dang. Not sure. They are definitely brass tanks, but look like aluminum cores. I'll have to take a closer look at the cores.

I suppose I could do that, but the radiator (in the 2V) is a larger than the stock 2V radiator, it looks like it came off of a 4V, being wider and 3 core, (vs. 2V dual core) and it has AL cores, so it was recently an upgrade to the previous owner, so he has already been there. (it was a barn...

Got a shroud, no thermostat, clutch fan, new water pump, flushed whole system out, spring on lower hose confirmed..... still overheating. I don't think she is running too lean, plugs aren't white.... I don't think there is too much loading on motor, it idles fine. likewise I don't think I have...

I wonder if i have exhaust/ coolant interaction... I don't see lots of steam in the exhaust. Would gobs of sludge on heads do it? Perhaps I'll get the radiators checked and crack the valve covers while that's going on....

Timing is advanced about an inch below bottom of metal guide tab near harmonic balancer. Lower radiator hose has spring in it. Heating is proportional to speed. Heat camera shots dosent look bad.

Both stock housings. I suppose I could bring them to a shop but the infared camera shows cores being pretty good. These motors still have the old valve seats, but I use lead additive....

No sir. Stumped.

Update... Replaced water pump with new HP one, flushed cooling system, added a shroud, clutch fan, and she still overheats.... (2v Rupert) whiskey Tango Foxtrot Pretty sure I'm stuck on this one... Any suggestions/ ideas?

With the FLIR I can see the thermostat opening. and also that the radiator is not clogged. Regarding timing..., don't know yet, will check later. Maybe crappy water pump? to me, this seems major league problem, not something slight... On my spare newport, the 2V, (named 'Rupert') it didn't run...

thanks

yes, detailed response in thread.

Cooling system is relatively clean, as it overheats often, and coolant is replaced. I would say coolant is not crud-filled. I have an exhaust leak between manifold and flange on passenger (starboard) side. It is a leak, but not what I would describe as major. The radiator is a 2v radiator, I...

thanks

about a year. Bought her with a rotted out valley pan, and a proportional vacuum leak. Since I had a 440 intake with carbs in the basement and a spare 383 6-pack intake also previously purchased some 10 or so years ago, I thought, why not.?.. She still has the 2V stuff, all of it, so I thought...

posted them below. Still working on basics...

still figurin out the posting techniques and stuff, thanks for bearing with me. Had many a Mopar over the years, am partial to 68 Chryslers currently, specifically Newports, you know, the economy model of 68 Chryslers. Below is Chrystene, with 6-pack and in primer.
