Is their a chance that this is fuel related.
I am still having the same hot temperatures as earlier and my performance shop is telling me to richen the mixtures.
Apparently when it is too lean the cylinder walls heat up.
Their is an interesting article in Pontiac Tech Special Summer 2000 Edition pg.70-72 which details the use of different fuels today and this being a contributing factor to the temperature rising on the vehicles. they suggest an aluminium radiator for the quick fix but i do not feel this well solve everyones problem.
I am going to try running an edelbrock performer with a holley 750 to see if their is a differance.
Also i have heard of performance shops running automationg transmission fluid with the fuel for lubricant. Apparently it does the same job as lead. has anyone heard of this.
