I just traveled about 130 miles this weekend from Rhinebeck, NY to Sparta, NJ on a clear day with 78F temperatures. It should have been a pleasant run, but the cockpit heat was overwhelming, especia

For ceramic coating of your headers I would recommend HPC (High Performance Coatings) See their web site at http://www.hpcoatings.com. When I did the headers on my '64 +4 a year ago they were a bit

I am surprised someone hasn't come up with a way to fit a couple of those little hinged vents to the either side of the scuttle - like MG 'T' cars and old Bentley's have. You know they are like a kid

I had the headers on my +4 jet coated 2 years ago. They look good. It's hard to say if it makes the cockpit cooler. I also insulated the inside of the firewall with neoprene/mylar sheets that I got t

Thanks to all for the manifold coating tips, especially Art who reminded us to do the inside as well. But, is this the most bang for the buck to reduce that incredible heat? My particular 4/4 is a re

The temperature of the exhaust can vary quite dramatically with ignition and valve timing. Ignition timing is easy to check, valve timing can be a function of the cam profile. When I fitted a fast r

One thing I always try to remember, is that it is almost certain that the car didn't leave the factory 'overheating' other wise the first owner would have got it sorted under warranty. It seems that

Make sure that the ignition timing is set correctly. The timing on a 4/4 should advance up to about 36 to 38 degrees total advance by about 4,000 rpm. That is mechanical advance, checked by reving th

In reference to the heat, have you made sure that the valve to the heater has been turned off at the engine? That in itself would roast the poor passenger! Tony -- http://www.zebra.net/~ldmcjr ldmcj
