Only if your gauge is accurate. What is the actual temperature?
 
The gauge seems acurate. Its a stock engine, and its about 105. Stroker, if your around the tulsa area or been to mopars at the park in tulsa then I'm sure you've seen it
 
Dart_Doctor actually owned it then. I purchased it from him to build as my childs first car (when they're ready for it of course) to fund his fish project.

That's cool! I'm building a 68fstback for my kids. Boys name is Jerhemi Cuda Baird...lol but I think the girls are more excited...
Almost done with it...
 
Awesome! Im so excited it isnt funny! my wife has another ultrasound on the 4th. We're suppose to find out the gender. this is what all my fingers look like, hoping for a boy- X lol
 
btw the gauge is accurate when it tells u its hot its hot .... dont ask how i know Doc looks at floor
 
im sure your engine temp is more then 105 as u stated if i read it correctly,,, just make sure you have an over flow bottle,,and that its at least 1/4 full when the engine is cold,,

If 64lucy is running a stock radiator like I am :blackeye: I run an 8lb radiator cap, I have seen a cople folks put 13lb and higher and seen these old radiators split at the top or bottom seems.
 
I'm running a 7lb that leaks. I'm sure not gonna up the pressure in this heat. That would be silly.
