If you have a correctly restored cooling system, good radiator, two blade fan, water pump, engine side pans, and properly timed. My view is you should not have any overheating problems.
I don’t run with a thermostat, and use only distilled water with rust inhibitor.
I have never had a Model A over heat. Engine runs at around 165 degrees. Heat is one of the biggest reasons for engine failure.

a question for you WHN. Is it your opinion that engine side pans aid cooling?
