Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project

Well i got a 7" fan to replace the 10" that I couldn't fit anywhere on the rad, and managed to sneak the 7 onto the front of the rad below the intercooler which will take up the rest of the surface area for the most part. It's behind the bumper and pretty secure from rocks, and hidden from sight.

There's still an obvious issue going on with exhaust or some kind of pressure getting into the water jacket. The car gets up to 190 degrees with fan on, no thermostat, at idle, 900rpm, in the driveway in park - no load. Also if you pop the radiator cap is off, and you spool the engine a little, coolant shoots out of the radiator cap opening. I don't believe that's supposed to do that unless there's pressure behind it. I'm thinking the block is cracked, or the head bolts weren't torqued down right or something. I just took all the bolts out one by one, following TQ sequence for the head, and retightened them again to 65lbs twice. Tomorrow i'll put the valve cover back on, put coolant back in the system, and see what happens. It's all drained for now.
