water pumps????
Any advice for an old man who has a buddy that has overheating problems with his 52 ford flattie. It has new water pumps from speedway motor and the engiine is stock except for a .030 overbore and a dual intake with 2 94's. The shroud and mechanical fan are stock and the radiator has been flushed. The truck is ok when moving with the temperature around 190-195 degrees but let it idle for a minute and it will boil over. Just running 10 percent antifreeze along with water. We took the engine apart but block looks good with nothing to impare the water flow.Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!
Good to have her home finally, still need to go back and give her another polish after messing with the engine stuff. Made it up to Idaho. Also a local show.
