I have a 49 3100 that had same issue overheating when setting in traffic. It has the 216 with an aluminum radiator. My problem was that it wasn't in time quite right. Messed with it all spring till I got the timing right. Now it doesn't over heat. Even was in a Halloween parade with no issues. Like someone else said check other things. Grady.
