Default Re: slow heating

If that is a Nova then the radiator is completely wrong...also must have a shroud!! It appears to have a short water pump..is this a 68..?? the 68's had a fatory clutch fan with 5 blades. I also see a vacuum tube for the tranny...but, I don't see cooling lines..??

If you run the correct radiator and shroud, a good fan and the 160* stat..you should be fine. After those addtions you can look at fuel/timing issues to make it even better...if you need more info send me a PM.
