[QUOTE="kyle94gt, post: 591951, member: 9449"] So not only are my effing plug wires acting like a b*tch, I've got a severe overheating problem. I started with a freshly bored, boiled, and clean 302 block. bored .030 and honed. new everything on the bottom end, Crank, rods, bearings, pistons *flat top hypereutectic by Keith black*, new cam bearings, a TFS stage 1 cam, stock top end with a c.a.i., NEW WATER PUMP, NEW THERMOSTAT 180*, NEW RADIATOR stock replacement, NEW HOSES, and NEW T-Stat Housing, and new serpentine belt, all gaskets are new, yes head gaskets are on right, and yes the water pump is in the correct rotation.. now to the problems... within I would say about 15-20 miles at 55-60mph highway speeds, from cold by the time i get to my destination the auto meter gauge is at 220 degrees, and the factory gauge is pegged on the "H." I've bled the air from the system completely, drained and replaced coolant, did a flush at that time too, I've still got this problem. What the hell could be causing this??? I have the stock pulley's too. and I've checked the condensor to make sure it's clear. I've hardwired the fan with the ccrm mod as well and it still does it. I'm seriously about 10 miles from selling it. :BangHead: :angry4: :violent1: [/QUOTE]
