Back to basics
After building 19 Pontiac engines, I have never had a problem with running hot. Until I built my own. 482 stroker block filled. I tried everything in the arsenal. $$$ burning it down came to mind. Then I thought, what about my new $90 temp. gauge. Bingo. Now I need to change my 165 thermostat to 185 because at 95 deg day it will not go past 180 deg. Now i can sleep. I laugh at red lights now.

I replaced the 4 core with a 2 core aluminum that looks factory. I thought it was the problem. Now I have it to remind myself to look at ALL the picture.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
