Hey guys, my car is overheating. I have an aluminum radiator and an electric fan. The car was running fine at 180 degrees and then it just started running very hot (above 230 degrees). I did replace the thermostat, water pump, and eventually had the heads checked. I did have a cracked head, so I replaced it and installed both heads with Felpro gaskets. I am still have issues with overheating and it is driving me insane. Did any run into an issue with this in the past and what did you do to fix the problem?
+1. Once the heads are on, the FRONT indicator is covered. But, with careful inspection, you can usually verify if they are on correctly or not. Check the photos below of the two most common Fel-Pro shapes for telltales. The bottom of each photo is toward the carb.
I'm building a 2nd 250-powered Lemons car because I'm clearly incapable of making good decisions.
Anyway, I need to source a flywheel to hang off the formerly AT-equipped 250 I've got. It appears no parts supplier sells replacements.
My understanding is the I6s are internally (or inherently)...

Even though this side of the forum seems dead I'll still put a build thread lol.
So long story short I built a division 6 super Street maverick with my father in law while I was growing up. Started at 5 years old and continued to 15 years old when my mom and him split. It sucks..... It it was...
