It's been a little while since I've been here, many family issues however. I've got this 78-ish truck, new radiator (radiatorbarn.com), rebuilt head, toyota h20 pump and fan clutch, thermo(195ish??). The works basically.
this thing runs fine around town, temp is 180-190 max. As soon as I get it on the highway and run it, temps go up. I ran to Dulles airport the other week. temps went past 200 towards 210. I'm getting really pissed over this. too much time and money in that POS 2f, I regret not going SBC everytime I look at it.
CARB running too lean??? What else could it realistically be??? The carb is cobbled together from several different years, I did this to get rid of the egr tubes etc. Any advice. Primary and secondaries switched? jetting backwards. help is appreciated.
