Radiator is a new Champion with the Twisted Steel Performance thermal coating stuff. I had the radiator out when installing the new engine and did clean out between all the components in the stack. When I installed the new engine I did not do anything with the thermostats. The cooling system was...

Think I’m going to go with the two 190s, both are new AC Delco stats that I’ve had on the shelf for about six or so years. Then see what temps the engine runs at with these and possibly go warmer if I’m not happy with these results. I’ll try to get these changed before Sunday when I drive over...

What was original equipment ? AC Delco for sure, but then 198* stats ?

Anyone want to comment on using 190* thermostats ? Its got 195s in it now. Would five degrees cooler make a huge difference in performance ETC ?

Got on Amazon and ordered a new ACDelco coolant pump.

That I will check. If I got the larger size, I’ll attempt doing the math, divide the number of cylinders by the ounces labeled on the can then pour in an ammount according to the math. Long as I dont throw some alphabits into the equation I’ll do just phine. 😹😹😹😹

I have been looking over thermostat questions and answers. I have read to run the 195s, I have read to run 185s or whatever the 180 range comes in. I have on the shelf a pair of brand new GM original set of 190s. The reason I ask. Ambient air temp was 66 degrees. Driving to Church last Sunday...

Do You have the FRANTZ part numbers so We can order those filters ? Can they be ordered direct from FRANTZ ? If there is a web page where we know we will be getting the real McCoy, could You list that too ? We dont want some cheap @SS’D chinese knock out, ooops, knock off. 😹

I’m going to do a water treatment on the top end of the four cylinder thats in the MG. Then change oil and adda can of restore to the mix. They advertise it in four, six and eight cylinder enjuns. I dont remember which size I got, I’ll have to look next time in the garage.

With the bucket cutting edge pointed straight down, and, the arms in float position, then getting close to the end of the run, start tipping the bucket so it rides flat against the ground, like in load position. That produces a nice smooth finish once a little practice has been accomplished.

You can run a line out of the radiator cooler, into an external cooler the the disconnected line hooks to the external cooler, a cool cool cooler idea. 🤷😹😹😹

Yeah, nice

I watched that on one of them border smuggler series. Some pallet loads came in from Hungary and they had not been heat treated, those loads got sent back.

Nice attachment. My son has a box grader for His tractor. There is three or four ripper teeth arranged on that device. His driveway is about a 1/3 of a mile long. It gets quite rough at times. On goes the box blade with the teeths down, gets the road riled up quite nicely then lifts the teeths...

Love the video. If ever I were to move to an area with forest, a bandsaw mill would be my first purchase.
