I run nothing but mopar caps, aftermarket ones suck and either cause too much pressure or not enough

I wouldnt own a car without heat, there are many nights towards September that the defroster for fog is a real nice option here in canada

top hose should be very hot, hard to hang onto, bottom will be cooler but not much

I see your in alberta, like Me I'm also in Canada and having delt with dewy nights and chilly ones I think you'd be crazy to block heater off or take it out, just like removing wipers (illegal in NS) some people remove A/C but frankly a car with it is worth much more here in canada because its...

the thin fans aren't rated for much (under 2000 CFM) the ford tarus fan is a popular upgrade when you have enough room (not A body) they create 3300 CFM

almost looks like that WP pulley is causing some troubles, if its thick where the fan sits it could be pushing it out some, also I think you can get stub nose water pumps

way too close, should be able to fit your hand between rad and fan to allow movement of engine, and body flex

sounds like you had one fan for both heat and A/C, since the a/c switch is on its still providing power to motor sounds like it maybe easier to get non A/C heater controls

you'll need a heater no matter where you live, if you out at night there is dew in the summer, and some nights can be chilly that being said why not be comfortable during the very hot periods of the summer and have A/C as well, most new components are much more ascetically appealing and take up...

alot of chevs are not so easy to work on, the older cavaliers with coil on the back of the engine is one that comes to mind, that being said no you can't use an inline thermostat you have to fix it properly, if you don't and the original thermostat chooses to stick shut when its freezing cold...

good to hear :thumbup:

everyone seems to be ignoring the fact that his cowl is rotted out and soon be the windshield channel and he just wants to slap an aftermarket heater in it so he doesn't have to fix the problem

if the cowl area is rotten I would fix it, it will lead to windshield channel rot in no time, after that happens its all kinds of fun

exactly the car in my avatar hasn't had a fan shroud for 10+ years, cheap aluminum flex fan and it never runs over 200 degrees on the hottest day although when I've done core plugs in most mopar v8's there filled nearly up past the core plugs with sludge and dirt, a good washing out with a...

put one of these on and never have problems again http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mopar-318-340-360-Cooling-Bypass-Hose-Kit-SILICONE-USA-Correct-Clamps-Dodge-/221271369025?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3384cd2541&vxp=mtr

I noticed that too, it should have been trimmed to allow the bend to be completely where it should naturally sit

there must be a restriction causing it to split...

yeah I've used a great product for old hoses such as vacuum and fuel hoses... called replacement, do it before you have an engine fire!

I'm pretty sure its too wide but check anyway

never seen a bottom hose on the drivers side of the engine on an A body, what engine? what year? pictures?

those lever vent caps and most aftermarket style caps are junk and made for mostly GM; get an OER style cap and pressure test cooling system make sure it will hold

actually yes very ugly, nothing says classic or antique like a serpentine belt:-\"

thats even more ugly then the factory v belt stuff!

1400 CFM is not enough, is that each or combined? you need to be able to pull at least 3000 CFM or it will overheat

I know this site has good info on it, and some have swapped out a 3.9 into there cars... I'm doing an engine swap from a 2000 dodge dakota 3.9 to a 1988 dodge dakota 3.9, both have A/C and both are computer controled I know how to get the truck running from the 2000 harness but I don't know...

yes absolutely, some of the 3.8 ford Taurus fans are the best, but if your looking for aftermarket try and get as close to 3000 CFM as possible

I recall if it can't produce 3000 CFM it won't cool a v8

what brand of radiator? one thing I don't like is its cross flow and doesn't have top and bottom tanks, made for a chebby

always burp it; what I do when starting fresh is put a few quarts of antifreeze in; start engine and turn heater on add rest slowly til full leave cap off til heater blows extremly hot air out the vents (about 20 minutes) put cap on and try it

fan shroud is needed as well as checking the plugs to make sure your not running lean as suggested above if your heads/intake have been off it could be the gasket is blocking the coolant ports
