Re: 1932 3 Window Dash Hardware Question

Thanks guys...makes sense. And Tom, your comment about limited access is exactly right! That's why I figured there had to be a clip, or as it turns out a procedure to make them work. I really...

Re: 1932 3 Window Dash Hardware Question

Thanks Boxcar Tom...that is very helpful. What holds them in place before the screw through the dash goes through it? Is there a spring clip or something? Or do they literally need to be held up by...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

I am not aware that any of the head bolts go into any of the oil galleries? Am I missing something?

I believe that I was drawing a small amount of coolant into the combustion chamber (as could be...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

Sneaky bastage camera playing tricks on our eyes. I hadn't noticed it previous to your post. I just ran down to the shop to verify...the dark spot on the photo doesn't exist anywhere but in that...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

You nailed it on the big bore gaskets comments...my block is .080" over so I had to use the big bore gaskets.

I had not seen the "parts number" reference to those cracks before (looked it up...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

I am glad to have found the issue, but was also curious about why my coolant tests in the shop did not show any signs of the failure as well. I discussed this with the rad shop owner (good...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

To close the loop and follow up on this one...the rad checked out fine. So this took me back to the engine and the possibility of head gasket failure (or start of failure). So while the coolant was...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

I have a heater and the coolant continually cycles through it (no shut off valve). According to the guy that was following me, the overflow puked each time I got to the top of a climb. In seeing how...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

The coolant recovery tank is not tight to the core (it's spaced off by about an inch) and I run with a fan and without hood sides so the rad seems to be able to get lots of air through it. Thanks for...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

When I take the rad in next week, I'm going to ask them pressure test the rad and cap as a unit, as well flow test the core. I don't think the thermostats were causing air pockets as I've drilled an...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

Thanks for the reply...my waterpumps have about 500 miles on them. I'm hoping that's not enough miles to wear them out.

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

I re-torqued the heads earlier this week...didnt get any movement on any of the bolts.

I'm taking the rad in next week to be checked over and further modified.

So, I emptied the cooling system of fluids to take the rad out for modifications (raising the height of the filler neck (and I may even have an bleeder fitting installed at the highest point). While...

Re: 59AB Cooling System Advice Needed from the Experts (not an overheating issue)

I think you're on to something with the filler neck being lower than the top of the tank introducing too much air and hence frothing into the coolant at higher rpms. Thanks for that idea/thought!
