    Best way to remove starter 318 newbie question 67 cuda

    if you leave the pos on at the battery,as stated before,the pos potential is still at the starter and a wrench or whatever can ground it and spark/weld/scare the hell out of a person. Do it your way,and good luck. I'll do it the way I've done for almost 50 years.

    Engine won't cool off!!

    if it's overheating at idle...radiator, waterpump(is the water circulating at higher rpm ??) and or airflow issue....Best combination I ever used was 7 blade steel clutch fan...schroud...alum or copper rad...fan should go halfway in schroud...blades half in...half out..

It's not like You're running 14 to 1 compression and a 10 to 1 stroker should give enough fun for most any street cruiser.
