I have a 63 Valiant, 225. Ever since the engine rebuild about 15,000 miles ago(bored .030). It tends to run on the hot side. I have installed an electric fan new radiator correct thermostat and drive most of the time with the heater on but it still runs too hot. I thought about a custom radiator, alum. with more capacity. Any tips on getting cooling it off?
