by bettlesrI have a Vintage Precision housing and a Stant #45358 180° thermostat. Using a mechanical gauge screwed into the spare port on the housing I can not get the water temperature above 150° to 160°. The other port is connected to a remote water heater under the front seat. The air from the heater is warm but not hot. When I had the stock water outlet and an adjustable thermostat in the upper hose the...

by DaWizardWell, got the pistons and con rods out of the block today as I am finished for now on the "craft shed" for the kidlet.
Much to my dismay, none, nada, zip con rods have shims on the big ends!

I use a thermostat in all my cars, including my Model A's, so this warning applies to modern and Model A cars. As many now know, I was in Arizona for 2 months to reunite with my girlfriend from the 70's and also to buy a nice rust free Buick. When I returned home the other day I noticed the engine temp would only get up to 109*. Even after completely blocking the air in front of the radiator, the...

Was just reading over conversion to a Vintage Precision Thermostat Housing. Noticed in the attached information water/Redline Water Wetter is recommended instead of antifreeze.
Comments from y'all? Has anyone who has done the conversion experienced the issue of foaming and leakage mentioned in the document?...-
