Awesome, Thanks Rick. I have been doing a lot of tuning and timing. I finally got the hesitations and bogs out. I may try the two silver springs in my msd to get my timing in sooner next time. Thinking it may help me leave better. I got the black cam, blue and a silver now. at least I...

Shifting at 5600, or trying too anyway.

Why? In the water box? I am asking because I do not know and I do my water box burn out in 1st...

Oh car weighs 2900 at this point, and I have 26" slicks

My car is a 1969 Plymouth Valiant. Ford 9" rear end with 4.11. 727 trans. My 318 was bored .30 over, flat top pistons, cam makes power from 2200-5200, cam is 278/290 lift .467/.494. Stall is a 2400 now. MSD ignition system. How does that all sound to you guys?

How would 3600 stall work you think? Bigger?

Got ya, ya my car for some reason loves 2nd gear. I do not leave well and that is probable why.... Thanks for your help. I am loving this and really appreciate all the help people have given me on this forum. Thanks! Time for a bigger stall converter. I was only looking at intakes due to...

I do not. any idea of what might be a better fit? Thanks for your time.

I have 4.11's and 2400 stall. I am guessing not enough?

I just started drag racing my self with a 318 powered 1969 plymouth valiant. I have a 727 and won my first two bracket races. I am not real fast, I won the 8.9 class 1/8th mile. I would have to agree and say throw some slicks on it and make runs. I made over 30 runs my first race and another...

Any one have one of these? I currently have a performer on my 318 and since my car is more for drag racing I want to get the most out of my 318, Is this a better way to go? I am running a Holley 650 double pumper. Good cam. Wondering if this will get me anything. Thanks for your help.

Thank you all for your help. Well, I will call this a rookie mistake, I had the maine hose higher than the fill spout on the radiator.... Changed my water neck of the intake to a side spout and made sure the hose was lower than the fill. Like I said I am really new to this. Again thank everyone.

OK new question on this. What direction should the flow of coolant be coming from. If I take the top hose off I am getting it pushed out the top hole of the radiator. Should it not be going to the pump from the bottom of the radiator?

yes starts and runs very well. It stays cooler longer while running but eventually rises even while cruising. As soon as I hit a light or stop she climes up.

Thanks for your thoughts and effort on this.

I have a napa aluminum pump with a mach pully. Just a single belt moving the pump and alternator.

Yes I get circulation. I do not notice bubbles but will take another check in the am. Is it possible that I get circulation with the cap off but once it is on I get an issue? I noticed the other day I thought I had it licked and it stayed a 210 with the cap off.Next day I drove it and it over...

OK sorry for the lack of info. Electric fan, mounted to the radiator. 3000 rpm I believe. No shroud. I have a sunpro. I usually shut it down before it gets to hot but right to the 280 max.

A little background, I just built my first mopar, 1969 Plymouth Valiant with a decently built 318. I am pretty much new to the hot rod and muscle car world so forgive my diagnosis. My 318 is overheating, I know the timing is set correctly. I have an aluminum radiator that I got new. It has a...
