The 160 degree stat is a good idea but I bet the lack of shroud is 'the' problem. What shroud design were BB Novas supposed to come with?

Shroud is a definite. Try a 1 inch bigger crank pulley, or a 1 inch smaller water pump pulley. On my 68 Impala I have put on a electric fan on the front(pusher) for if I'm in parades.
