46 Ford Fan Shroud ?

[Aeroman99]

G.M Thanks for all of the info. I just installed 160 degree thermostats in my 46. I haven't ran it sense installing them and was told my an old timer at a car show last summer that this would help cool the motor down by allowing the coolant to spend a little more time in the radiator which made sense to me. Now if I read you posting right you where saying not to use thermostats in the summer ? The last time I was able to really drive my car was at the tail end of July last summer and it was well into the 90s and driving it home one day ( about an hrs drive ) it was reading 210 tooling down the road at about 45 50 mpr and about 10 miles from home it started vapor locking and spitting and sputtering I pulled the chock out a little and was able to make it home. It had never done this before until then. Now in the spring time it would run about 160 which was fine. Sense then I installed a electric fuel pump to help with the V/L but would also like to try to keep the engine running a little cooler. I'm not sure what type the cap is or the pressure rating is on the cap but that is something I will check into. Hopefully it will be something as simple as that.
Thanks again.
