7 Psi should be more than enough on these old engines. Water pump seal =

If you are using the alloy radiator you have a short neck cap. Depending =
on the press=E2=80=99s app you are using you can not use a bellows type =

lbs. Then the thermostat will close and the engine will overheat.=20

I would like to go back to Steve Byers=E2=80=99 comment. I am not so =

My problem was that my engine ran cool and would take quite a while to =
=E2=80=9Cwarm up.=E2=80=9D I think I was using a 165 degree (or =
thereabouts) non-sleeved thermostat. Robert Shaw as I recall. So I =

the same AC sleeved thermostats 82 degrees centigrade from Kees that =
Steve used. The engine seems to be much happier and gets to running temp =
more quickly.

=20

At least for my engine, a 160-165 degree thermostat keeps things cool =
too long. In a perfect world I would prefer David Nock=E2=80=99s bellows =
thermostat but with a 185-190 degree opening. Since that doesn=E2=80=99t =
