The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop Chev 350 sb Temperature

I am building a 36 chev sedan hot rod and the 350 was just rebuilt, the rad was recored and every thing else is new. I have been running it lately and at 210, I worry and turn the engine off. I have used the Wet Water and the temperature got up to 210 today. At 210 the engine is some tinmes stalling. I am thinking that could be from the heat and plan to look into cooling the engine compartment. I am use a 16 lb rad cap.
I just do not want to distroy the engine (at least most of the time!)
