1967 GTO cooling questions
Finally got my car back on the road and have some questions about how the car is cooling. As summer is approaching, I have concerns I will not be able to keep the car cool on the hot days.
Car runs about 170ish around town and about 185ish on the highway when it is about 60-65 degrees out. Highway speeds are 60-65mph / 2400-2700 RPM’s. Just last week I was driving the car home from work and it was 90 degrees out and on the side streets, the car stayed about 185ish and jumped to 205-210 on the highway. Seems like engine speed is playing a big part in cooling. I also notice the temp creeps up on some of the larger hills. Cooling system specs:
So What do you guys think? Are these normal temps? Is the pump turning too fast on the highway?
