Welcome to CHR!
A couple questions:
1. What engine are you working on? The assumption is a 305 (almost all '86s were 305) or 350 in stock form except as noted above..
2. How hot? Is one side 160 and the other 190?
3. How and where are you measuring the temperature? Do you have sensors directly in the water passages in both heads?
4. How are you measuring header temps? with a probe or infrared?
5. Does the engine perform well?
6. Does the condition change on the road between city driving, open road and up a steep hill?
7. Whats your initial timing? Whats full advance timing?
There will be more questions - based on some of these answers.
Regards
