Overheating

[oldskydog]

I ran across this TSB in my library that addresses overheating on BBC engines and the info should be just as applicable to W block engines. Good info on part numbers for pulleys, etc.

Ray,
The weather reports usually add a "feels like" factor to account for humidity. Right now, we're having a cool spell because of the clouds and humidity. It's 91 degrees with 43% humidity and feels like 101.
