I haven't had any problems with overheating but I haven't really driven the truck much yet. Just a lot of idling while working on fuel issues and a few trips up and down the driveway. I agree with your doubts about NOS rebuild kits being way past their prime. After posting this thread, I came to that same conclusion. I appreciate your referral Otto and will go from there. Our sole remaining clutch and water pump rebuilder in the Denver, CO area closed up shop some time in the last few years.
