Late 70s LA 360 in a 73 scamp. Only things I've done to the motor is aluminum intake, 4bbl, headers, and a top end gasket kit.
My coolant is super dirty and getting bubbles in it. I've flushed until clean multiple times and even used the chemical flush and it always comes back. Now that it is warming up outside, the car is warming up too (225-230) after 30-45 minute drive.
Water pump is new, thermostat is new, heater core is bypassed. What gives?!? I've heard about water jackets in exhaust bolt holes. Could this be my issue? I've always had an exhaust leak and put on the Mr gasket set and it isn't near as bad. Oil looks perfect and trans fluid looks great. Radiator looks like it has leaked in the past and could need replaced but would that fix the issue?
Any advice helps!
