327 overheating at idle
#21
Before I got my checkbook out and started swapping parts, I'd verify the gauge reading with something like an IR gun or surface thermometer. Assuming that shows the gauge reading onthe dash is correct, the next step might be to determine if the radiator is copper or aluminum. If it's a copper radiator, you can expect it to run hotter than the factory replacement aluminum radiator others have discusse.
We offer them original style or direct fit replacements in aluminum.
Thanks,
John
